# episode 26 # Libanon – Talk with Lebanese Australian filmmaker and journalist Daizy Gedeon

It happened one day in July 2021, when I received from several Lebanese friends at the same time the trailer of the documentary “Enough! Lebanon’s Darkest Hour“.

I was excited and wanted to find out who was behind this project.

That same evening, in the hotel bar, I met a young man, Ronny Mouawad, who was co-producing the film with Daizy Gedeon. Coincidence?

So it happened that a few weeks later I had the chance to talk to Daizy Gedeon about her ambitions for the film.

With Daizy Gedeon, I got to know a full-blooded activist who is passionate about the things she cares about. This is such a wonderful skill that made me light up even talking to Daizy Gedeon. It is because of people like Daizy Gedeon that I feel humanity is carried on in this world.

Talking to Daizy Gedeon was one of my personal interview highlights this year and I am very grateful that she took the time to talk to us despite her busy schedule.

In 2021, Daizy Gedeon was presented with the Movie That Matters Award at a Better World Fund (BWF) gala event in Cannes for her documentary “Enough! Lebanon’s Darkest Hour“.
