This Middle East Airlines video is not your average safety ad.
The national carrier of Lebanon has managed to create a safety video featuring the best of the country merged with safety tips while on the plane. And it is exceptionally awesome!!
Because some of the most epic things happen when flying with MEA.
The Video is courtesy of Philippe Aractingi,who begun his career by taking photographs of Beirut's daily life during the Lebanese Civil War, and he directed his first documentary at age 21. He is the creator of 'Bosta' back in 2005, which offers an innovative look at Lebanon by directing a musical, a first for post-war Lebanon. He is also behind 'Under The Bombs' released in 2008, that places two professional actors in the South of Lebanon, and confronts them with real life actors (as civilians, soldiers, rescue teams, etc.) who embody their actual roles. 'Heritages', his third film released in 2013, narrates the exile of his own family across four generations and a hundred years of history.
