Today Rima recorded here videoclip for our CD Falak, which will be released in Beirut this week. One of the songs, Haflet Taraf, on the cd is a rather political song about the situation here in Lebanon. It criticizes the fact that people are just talking and discussing while bombs fall and the country falls apart.

The scene is set in an old deserted parking house in Beirut. A dusty smelly place which is a good reflection of the situation that is sang about in the song. It is really great to see it and even be in it. Because I came a few days earlier and the shooting of the clip was delayed some days I even got a little role in it. Not playing, that would have been nice if the whole band could have been there, but as sort of an actor carrying around a basscase. My first job as an actor! (after my infamous version of Joseph in the Christmas play in Primary school) It was great to do and I am so happy to be part of this great achievement for Rima. Her first real video clip! As soon as the result is ready I will try to post it on the website.
