Lebanese Metal Band Slave to Sirens Release Trailer of Upcoming Documentary [Lebanon]

This is MAD cool! Check out the Lebanese metal band Slave to Sirens in this trailer for their upcoming documentary. The full write-up is as follows:

“SIRENS intimately chronicles the lives and music of Slave to Sirens, a band made up of five young metalheads whose burgeoning fame is set against the backdrop of the Lebanese revolution. Its members wrestle with friendship, sexuality, and destruction as their music serves as a refuge for Beirut’s youth culture.

At the band’s core are its two founding members, Lilas Mayassi and Shery Bechara, whose complicated relationship and subsequent tense fallout threaten the very fabric of the band. An even greater looming threat, however, is Lebanon’s criminalization of homosexuality, as well as the wholly devastating effects of their country’s political regime.

Despite their obvious challenges, the members of Slave to Sirens persist in trying to create a revolution of their own: living their truth.”
