Several Futures is an independent film distributor with a focus on auteurist and anti-imperialist work. The label was founded in 2022 by filmmaker and programmer Graham L. Carter in the hopes of bringing films to North America that might otherwise not be released. “My loyalty is always with the oppressed.” - Heiny Srour.

Lebanon at the end of the 80s. Ghassan Salhab’s debut follows Khalil as he returns to Beirut under a new identity, forced to confront the old friends and comrades he left behind following his faked death a decade earlier. Phantom Beirut is a haunting exploration of the official silences and collective amnesias that stalk the lives of those who live through conflict.
