Impressive vistas, grilled meat on an open flame, shots of faces that tell a story all of their own — this stunning video of Lebanon tells centuries worth of tales without saying a word.

James Lewis’ video from his travels in Lebanon better be good: a glimpse at his Vimeo page reveals he works for a visual effects company that worked on both “The Dark Knight” and “Inception.”

Check out the poignant images at 1:58 where a young boy points out the bullet holes in a wall, presumably in the country’s capital of Beirut, a reminder of some of the city’s not-so-better (but hopefully long-in-the-past) days.
