About the film:
One of the year's most unforgettable movies, THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB is a breathtaking and complex work of docu-fiction.
In this gripping movie based on real-life events, Red Crescent volunteers work to rescue a child named Hind Rajab trapped in a car under Israeli fire in Gaza. Writer and director, Kaouther Ben Hania, carefully constructs a relentlessly paced narrative around the archival audio of the distress call. Additional documentary footage from the day is intelligently woven into the world of the film alongside compelling performances by Saja Kilani and Motaz Malhees as the rescue operators who speak to Hind.
The film received a 23-minute, 50-second standing ovation at its Venice premiere, beating the previous record for longest recorded applause at a film festivall.
