The Insult (Arabic: قضية رقم ٢٣, romanized: Qadiyya raqm 23, lit. 'Case No. 23', French: L'insulte) is a 2017 Lebanese legal drama film directed by Ziad Doueiri and co-written by Doueiri and Joelle Touma. It was screened in the main competition section of the 74th Venice International Film Festival.[3] At Venice, Kamel El Basha won the Volpi Cup for Best Actor.[4] It was selected as the Lebanese entry for the Best Foreign Language Film[5][6] and was nominated for the Oscar at the 90th Academy Awards.[7]
The film tells the story of two men: Tony George Hanna (Adel Karam), a Lebanese Christian mechanic, and Yasser Salameh (Kamel El Basha), a Palestinian foreman, who are embroiled in a court case which causes political upheaval in an already unstable country.
