“…lovingly shaped and deeply felt, a happy-sad charmer which deserves a wide audience.”—Time Out London


Layal (Nadine Labaki) runs a colorful beauty shop in Beirut with three other women. In this small community of women they each have their problems. Layal has a relationship with a married man, Nisrine (Yasmine Al Masri) who is no more a virgin, will soon be married, Rima (Joanna Moukarzel) is lesbian and Jamal (Gisèle Aouad) is worried about getting old.

Labaki, who is also the director / co-writer, keeps this charming film fresh and funny without ever flinching from depicting the political and cultural challenges facing Lebanon (and the women who live there).

Caramel was Lebanon’s submission for 2008’s foreign language Oscar.
