When three young filmmakers set out to make a documentary about a French industrialist, accused of murdering his family, they are confronted by supernatural forces engaged in a war for the very soul of the land.


Set in present-day Lebanon, What Is Buried Must Remain is a modern ghost story with ancient roots and a phenomenal production context: made during a global pandemic and the economic collapse of Lebanon, and most scenes taking place around the refugee camps the young cast and crew calls home.
