Cinema addressing Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Overview

Cinematic works addressing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are receiving international attention through major film festivals. The documentary ‘NAZA’, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, is scheduled to compete for the Golden Lion at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival.
