The Venice Film Festival has announced the addition of a new documentary titled 'NAZA' to its competition lineup. This film, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, focuses on the civilian casualties resulting from the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, with scenes filmed on rooftops in Tel Aviv.
'NAZA' is notable for being the only documentary competing for the prestigious Golden Lion award at the festival, which is set to commence on September 2. The filmmakers, Abraham and Szor, are known for their previous work on the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land,' which highlighted the struggles of Palestinian activists.
The production of 'NAZA' took place over four years, concluding shortly before Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, which escalated the conflict in Gaza. The film draws on reporting from various media sources, including +972 Magazine and The Guardian, to present its narrative.
