An award-winning true story about love, survival, and awakening in the heart of war.

In 2006, Ashe Stevens is a young actor with big dreams, caught up in the buzz of early-2000s Los Angeles. When his best friend Danny-a well-known LA DJ-invites him to Beirut to help organize the country's biggest concert, headlined by 50 Cent, Ashe jumps at the chance. The city is electric: glamorous, open, alive with possibility. He's mesmerized by the people, the energy, and a beautiful blonde billionaire who captures his heart.

Just as he begins to imagine his future in the Middle East, war erupts. Israeli airstrikes hit Beirut, and the world he's come to love is thrown into chaos. As bombs fall, Ashe is forced to confront mortality, loss, and the shattering of everything he thought he understood about the world... and himself.

Lost in Beirut is a powerful reminder of how everything can change in an instant, and that life is only ever truly lived in the now.
