The name hobeika comes from the village of Beit Habbak in the
region of Byblos. This Habbaki family is issued from the
prestigious “Chemor” family of Kfarhata-Zgharta.
The Chemors of Kfarhata have the title of Sheiks. They
were the governors of Akoura in the mountains of Byblos
between 1211 and 1633 and the rulers of Zgharta-Zawiya
between 1641 and 1747. Their ancestors were the
Ghassanids, a Christian tribe that dwelled in the Arabian
Peninsula. After being displaced from Yemen because of a
natural disaster, they settled in the Houran region of Syria.
They have allied themselves to the Byzantines as protectors
of the South. Past the Islamic conquest of the region, they
sought refuge in Lebanon. Their first stay was in Akoura
(Byblos district) then they moved to Kfarhata in 1641.
At the beginning of the eighteenth century, some troubles
occurred between the Sheiks Chemor and the Daher family.
As a result a member of the Chemors was compelled to flee
the village and take refuge in a small over sighted village in the uphill of Byblos, Beit Habbak. He went there
with his four sons and his unique daughter. The latter got married with the son of the concierge although her
family did not accept it. Her brothers had killed her husband and were once again obliged to run away from the
village.
The first one went to the mountainous village of Baskinta and because he was coming from Beit Habbak, he
was called “Habbaki” which with time became “Hobeika”. The second one, Ferjane Chemor, had the courage to
stay in Beit Habbak. Today, his offspring is known as the family “Ferjane”. The last two brothers, Farhat and
Gharios went to the suburbs of Beirut where water is available and citrus trees are abundant. Farhat Chemor is
today survived by a large family in Hadath today known as the family “Farhat”. Gharios Chemor went to
Chiyah in 1757. His son Antoun took the name of his father as his family name like his uncles. We don’t know
if Antoun had brothers or sisters but we are sure that he had two sons: Fares (confirmed on the 19 April 1849)
and Youssef (confirmed in 1852).[wikipedia.org]

 | 2007.08.24 - 2007.08.29 - 18:00 Lebanese Film Festival 6th ed  |
| ..né. à Beyrouth is organizing the 6th Edition of its Lebanese Film Festival from 23 to 29 August 2007.
The 6th edition of the Lebanese Film Festival will present four sections:
August 23, 2007 with invitation
Opening Film
Lebanese premiere of one or more Lebanese fiction films at the opening of the festival.
From august 24 until august 29, 2007
Section 1: Lebanese Films 2005-2007
A selection of fictions, experimental or documentary films directed by Lebanese filmmakers (or from Lebanese origin) in Lebanon or abroad during the period: September 2005 - July 2007.
Due to the July 06 war in Lebanon, the festival was not held in august 2006.
Therefore the selection is open this year to the films produced since September 2005.
Section 2: Foreign look
This section will present films directed by foreign filmmakers who were interested in working on issues related to Lebanon. We are extremely curious at presenting this foreign look because it will enrich our cinema and
understanding of ourselves.
Section 3: Heritage
This section aims at reviving images from our past and from our film heritage.
Film of "yesterday":
As usual, we shall present a full-length film made before or during the 1975 war.
This year, we chose to present a foreign feature film shot in the 60s in Beirut.
Old Lebanese Trailers:
This is a very enjoyable way to revisit our cinematographic heritage. These trailers that often look old-fashioned are characteristic of the imagery of that period and they can translate to us the perceptions of the spectators of that period.
TV archives:
We have been closely following on TV the recent political events in Lebanon since February 2005. This made us dig into the TV archives that used to be showed in theatre in the 50s and the 60s in Beirut. This is an archive that will refresh our memory around the social and political events of that period.
Home movies:
(...) These 8 and super 8 mm films, most of which were found in the Sunday market - forgotten in boxes at back-shops -, tell the story of our life, our romances, our anniversaries, our holidays, our travels Stories that might seem insignificant but one never could have imagined how rich they would be on film. Those silent movies will be screened with live musical performances.
Section 4: Guest Filmmaker
Through this section, we attempt to make the public aware of a different filmmaking technique, and most importantly, to present to viewers high-quality non-commercial films that would not be screened in ordinary movie theatres.
Our guests name will be announced in the press release.

Unanimously, on stage, Demi Evans is much more than just a voice. She is a shining interpret whose sensitivity, strong confidence and energy awake any audience. The fusion of her voice, a gospel diva with blues and sometimes pop music creates a new kind of tune not heard in the music field today.
After several collaborations with prestigious and renowned singers like for instance Stevie Wonder, Demi Evans began her solo carrier in 1990 in France where she decided to set foot and become a leader singer. Nothing would stop her.

Hong Kong 1962, Chow Mo-Wan (Tony Leung Chiu-Wai), a journalist, rents a room from Mr. Koo. He will live there with his wife, a hotel receptionist. It's sheer coincidence that he moves in the same day that Su Lizhen (Maggie Cheung Man-Yuk) moves in next door, at Mrs Suen's place. Lizhen works as a secretary to Mr. Ho (Lai Chin), the boss of a shipping company. It's also a coincidence that both of them are moving in without help from their spouses. Chow's wife is working her shift at the hotel at the time of the move. Lizhen's husband, Mr Chan, is away on a business trip; he works for a Japanese company, and is often abroad. Despite having convivial and neighbourly landlords, Mr. Chow and Mrs. Chan often find themselves alone and lonely in their respective rooms.
Neither of them ever finds out how it began, but Mr. Chow and Mrs. Chan discover that their respective spouses are having an affair. The discovery shocks both of them. Chow, feeling hurt and wishing to understand how the affair happened, begins finding excuses to spend time with Mrs. Chan. They begin rehearsing what they will say to their spouses when they confront them with what they know. Then Mr. Chow invites Mrs. Chan to help him with a martial-arts series that he is writing for the newspaper. Their meetings are discreet, but people begin to notice. There seems no possibility that they, too, will drift into an affair. But Mrs. Chan's emotional reticence begins to haunt Mr. Chow and he finds his feelings changing. It's almost like being in love.
Four years later, as a Singapore-based reporter covering General De Gaulle's visit to Cambodia, Chow Mo-wan finds himself remembering an old story about a way of unburdening yourself of a secret you don't want anyone to know.
