Israeli film

American-Jewish actor Mark Feuerstein is heading to Israel to begin filming 'Midair', an action-packed intelligence thriller for Yes co-starring Aviv Alush and Gal Malka.

The Jerusalem Women's Film Festival will honor Hanna Azoulay-Hasfari while screening new Israeli and international films exploring identity, family, mental health, and women's experiences.

The Geneva-based festival, which opens on October 9, had previously included Tell Me Everything, a drama about a boy who discovers his father is gay at the height of the AIDS epidemic, in its lineup.

Beru’s film tells the story of Ethiopian Jews facing a dangerous journey to Israel against a backdrop of political upheaval and violence.

Nesher describes his film as the story of  “six people who thought they were having the worst day of their lives on October 6, 2023,” and follows them through the Hamas massacre on October 7.

Over 40 Israeli human rights groups issued a joint statement in support of 'NAZA' producers and condemning calls to revoke their citizenship.

"Why didn’t you broadcast?” 'NAZA' co-director Abraham said in an interview. “You say [our film] wasn’t complex enough. Okay. So why didn’t you broadcast something complex yourself?”

In 2019, Avraham reached out to Alnaouq to discuss what young people in the Gaza Strip think about politics in Gaza. Alnaouq serves as vice president of Hamas-linked Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor.

The IDF rejected claims raised in NAZA, saying the documentary relies on anonymous testimonies from individuals whose identities, military roles, and involvement could not be verified.

A new Israeli documentary challenges official accounts of the Gaza war, with anonymous officers alleging that civilian casualties were built into targeting decisions.
