YALLAH GAZA

Directed by Roland Nurier
2023; in French, Arabic and English (with English Subtitles) 
101 mins; Documentary

Winner:
The Karama Feather Award
Audience Award, 2023 

Yallah Gaza explores historical and geopolitical aspects, Palestinian politics, International Law and records. The film bears witness to their “fury to live” and the daily struggle that keeps despair at bay as Palestinians pass this flame, their culture and their land, from one generation to the next.

The film was made possible in part due to a very close collaboration with a French speaking filmmaker, Iyad Alasttal (documentary director and creator of the series “Gaza Stories”). The French crew filmed the European segments and handled the post-production.

Screening followed by a pre-recorded, virtual Q&A with the director.
