CinemaSavannah is honored to host one of the earliest US screenings of NAZA, the most talked about and most important documentary of the year. Directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, last year’s Oscar winners for No Other Land, their new film, shot at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv where the filmmakers interviewed 24 IDF soldiers, reveals in detail the systems behind Israel’s calculated mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. NAZA is a military acronym euphemistically used by Israeli intelligence to indicate the number of civilians that it expects will be killed in an airstrike. 

The film won a Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival where it received a 25-minute standing ovation, the longest in the festival’s history. Produced and distributed by The Guardian (UK). 80 minutes. In Hebrew, English, and Arabic, with English subtitles.
