Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the Venice International Film Festival, Naza is coming to the Spectrum 8 Theatres in Albany beginning 10/15.
SPECIAL SCREENING WITH POST- FILM DISCUSSION
Sunday, 10/18 2:50 pm
Tickets & additional info at btmcinemas.com
@jvpalbany & @prcalbany acknowledge the more than 270 Palestinian journalists who have been murdered by the IOF for courageously reporting on the Gaza genocide. They are among at least 74,000 Palestinians who have been killed since October 2023. It is because of their heroic work and sacrifices that the world has learned the extent of Israel’s brutality.
NAZA is Israeli military slang for collateral damage: the number of civilians an officer is allowed to kill in a strike. In this documentary, 24 Israeli intelligence officers and soldiers, many from the army’s most prestigious units, explain how that number was set, approved and exceeded in Gaza. Their identities and voices are disguised.
Filmed at night on Tel Aviv rooftops, in chapters with titles such as “Where’s Daddy?” and “Annihilation Zone”, they describe tracking targets to their family homes and watching families for days before strikes were approved. One officer followed two sisters to find their father; he was not home when the strike killed the family. As the filmmakers put it, the killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza was “not a ‘tragic byproduct’ of a war against Hamas” but “a premeditated, calculated, and intentional act.”
Directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, the Israeli co-directors of the Oscar-winning No Other Land. Produced by The Guardian and James Wilson (JW Films), executive produced by Jonathan Glazer.
