Brief Explanation

The film follows the story of our hero, or rather anti-hero, who’s trying to buy his way out of a governmental administrative procedure at a corner shop named ‘Lebanon4Sale’ where everything is for sale, even you. Impatiently he bribes the shop owner’s assistant to avoid the long cue and complete his task. Despite his best corrupt efforts he’s always interrupted by other customers up until he blows up in front of the shop owner while the latter is completing a deal with a prominent politician. The story doesn’t end well for our anti-hero as he ends up being sold to the politician as a result of the vicious cycle of corruption.
