This startling new docudrama from Kaouther Ben Hania (Four Daughters) which picked up a nomination for the Best International Feature Oscar, weaves archived accounts of January 29, 2024, with a detailed recreation of the events. That day, Red Crescent volunteers received an emergency call. A 5-year-old girl was trapped in a car under fire in Gaza, pleading for rescue. While trying to keep her on the phoneline, the Red Crescent workers do everything they can to get an ambulance to her. Her name was Hind Rajab.
