The Mediterranean Hub of Ancient and Urban Versatility
Lebanon is a territory of compressed diversity, offering filmmakers a high-density palette of textures within short driving distances. Its singularity lies in the blend of UNESCO World Heritage ruins—like the colossal Roman temples of Baalbek and the world’s oldest port in Byblos—contrasted with the cosmopolitan “Paris of the Middle East” energy of Beirut. From the brutalist, Oscar Niemeyer-designed structures in Tripoli to the snow-capped Cedars of God and the rugged cliffs of the Qadisha Valley, Lebanon provides a versatile backdrop that can double for Southern Europe, the ancient world, or modern coastal hubs.
Navigating Lebanon’s vibrant but complex landscape requires an anchor with deep regional roots. Our UAE-based team, composed of those who built the Gulf’s film industry from its inception, provides the essential technical and logistical spine for projects of scale. We bridge the gap between Beirut’s skilled local crews and international standards by mobilising “A-list” technical packages and specialized gear from our Dubai hubs. We manage the Ministry of Tourism and Information permits and navigate ATA Carnet requirements with surgical precision, ensuring your production in Lebanon captures its timeless beauty with world-class reliability.
