Set over the course of 24 hours, Last Round At Guapa follows Rasa, a gay man living in an unnamed Arab country trying to carve out a life for himself in the midst of political and religious upheaval. Rasa spends his days translating for Western journalists and pining for the nights when he can sneak his lover, Taymour, into his room. Then one morning Rasa's grandmother, the woman who raised him, catches them in bed together?Saleem Haddad, the son of a Lebanese-Palestinian father and an Iraqi-German mother, was born in Kuwait City in 1983 and educated in Jordan, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
