Documentary NAZA Highlights Gaza Conflict, Draws Mixed Reactions at Film Festivals
The documentary NAZA, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, premiered at the Venice and New York Film Festivals, receiving standing ovations and the Special Jury Prize at Venice. The film examines Israel's military actions in Gaza, highlighting civilian casualties and linking U.S. funding to the conflict. The directors distinguish between the October 7th attack and Israel's response. Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Netanyahu, have criticized the film and called for revoking the directors' citizenship. NAZA will be released theatrically and streamed globally later this year.
