They gave Lebanon their life… who can guarantee their old age? Where is the file of Lebanese artists headed?

“RED TV”

In the “315 Meeting” program with Morga Haboushi, we open one of the files that often remain behind the scenes: What happens to a Lebanese artist when he grows old and stops working?

From Salah Tizani “Abu Salim”, to Fadi Ibrahim and Fouad Sharaf El-Din, stories of artists who spent many years in theatre, television and cinema, but they raise a basic question: Does the Lebanese artist today have health and social security that protects him when he gets sick or gets old?

In the episode, we host the head of the Actors Syndicate in Lebanon, Nima Badawi, to ask about the role of the union, the Unified Mutual Fund for Artists, retirement pension, health coverage, and social assistance.

Is the problem with weak subscriptions?
Is funding insufficient?
What is the role of the state?
What happens to an artist who is no longer able to work?

Who gives the artist his due after years of giving?
Can the artist grow old with dignity, away from donation campaigns and calls for help?

An episode that opens the file of the Lebanese artist… from behind the lights.
