Synopsis

Lies and guilt are at the core of Patrick’s relationship with his mother Randa. Over the years, he has collected their audio messages and video calls, which transform into a portrait of her life in Lebanon and his own in Belgium. This very intimate yet social piece revals a complex relationship marked by the distance between the two characters, and shows what one may experience as a homosexual migrant. By turns moving, provocative and hilarious, Mea Culpa questions the links between national and sexual identities for a young Palestinian migrant.
