Set against the backdrop of a hot summer day, 17-year-old Nayla is faced with the same dilemma every Lebanese youngster faces today – to leave to pursue her dreams, or to stay. The two men in her life have set ideas about it, but both might wake up to a surprise. A coming-of-age drama set in a small Lebanese seaside town explores the clash of free-spirited people with a conservative environment, as well as adolescence, freedom, and societal constraints. Sea Salt is a love/hate letter to director Leila Basma’s hometown Tyre in the South of Lebanon.
