Die Stimme von Hind Rajab (The Voice of Hind Rajab)

In the organizer's words:

Silver Lion - Grand Jury Prize Venice Film Festival 2025 (La Biennale). Film drama by Kaouther Ben Hania (writer & director). With Saja Kilani, Motaz Malhees, Amer Hlehel, Clara Khoury.

On January 29, 2024, the staff of the Palestinian Red Crescent receive an emergency call from Gaza: a car is under fire, in which six-year-old Hind Rajab is trapped and begging for help. While the staff try to keep the girl on the line, they do everything they can to save her. Director Kaouther Ben Hania reconstructs the desperate rescue attempt using a combination of acted scenes and the original audio recordings of the emergency call. A film that not only documents, but also leaves you with its unsparing view.
