Twenty years after Lebanon's civil war ended, an estimated 17,000 people who vanished during the 15-year conflict remain unaccounted for, and journalist Rageh Omaar travels the country asking why. He meets the civil movements formed by families of the missing, who have spent two decades demanding answers the state never gave, and talks with former fighters now willing to speak openly about wartime abuses they once kept quiet. Omaar also follows a small secularist movement pushing against the sectarian power-sharing system that has governed Lebanon since the war, a structure built on religious affiliation that many blame for burying the truth about the disappeared in the first place. The report moves between interviews with these campaigners and the officials and old guard resistant to reopening the past, framing a country still negotiating with its own silence. The question running through it is blunt: can Lebanon confront what happened to the missing without the sectarian order itself, the system many hold responsible, finally facing an accounting.
