    A bit incoherent at times but is a good illustration of the Lebanese torn between traditions and reality. Was indeed a great introduction into the culture and society that I had little knowledge of

    Interesting, though ending a bit abrupt and a little hard for outsider to follow.

    Generational disencounters in a society recovering from war. Nadine Labaki is just marvelous. Why her name is not in the credits?

    Lebanese road movie about a group of dancers traveling in an old red bus. The bus and its passengers are a bit like Lebanon itself, recovering from years of war and torn between traditions & modernity.. Catchy oriental tunes too!

    The scirpt is great, so was the Dabke and the music. I felt like I was touring Lebanon while watching it.

    Returning to Beirut after a fifteen-year exile in France, Kamal reunites his high school dance troupe in order to introduce a modern variation on the traditional Middle Eastern dance, the dabkeh. When his modern routines are rejected by the jury of the National Dabkeh Festival, Kamal and his friends obtain a colorful tour bus and take their show on the road, bringing their jubilant music and dance to towns and villages throughout Lebanon. Featuring the work of some of the most popular actors, dancers and choreographers in the Arab world, Bosta is a thrilling musical feast for the senses.
