Gaza On Air

During the January 2009 bombardment of Gaza, and with foreign news crews barred from the area, a group of Palestinian journalists and cameramen risked their lives to covertly film scenes of the destruction, intended for news broadcast around the world. Director Samir Abdallah intercuts this harrowing, often never aired footage with interviews with the cameramen about their traumatic experiences, and how they continue to cope with their haunting, horrifying memories. Gaza On Air is an bold, uncompromising tribute to the men and women of the media.

This is an exceptionally graphic film and contains scenes of extreme violence.
