El ARENA - A groundbreaking documentary focusing on the Middle East’s first battle rap league

El ARENA navigates the underground world of battle rap in the Middle East, taking a first of its kind look into the stories, struggles, and perspectives of its most talented figures. Thanks to Lebanon's relatively liberal freedom of speech laws, Arab rappers from across the region come to this event to compete against one another and rhyme about anything they want. Outside The Arena, these artists’ lives are defined by socio-economic problems and war, but on the inside they live out their dreams and fight for a chance to be crowned king.
