GIOVANNA, Silva; NICOLAI, Olaf
Palmyrah

Giovanna Silva captures the long gone glory of Palmyra, a legendary hotel in Baalbek, Lebanon, near the ruins of Heliopolis. The place the  attracted international figures such as Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Jean Cocteau and Charles de Gaulle, but due to impact of the war on the border with Syria and an economic depression in general, the hotel now stands empty.
