NAZA, so named after the Hebrew acronym used to signify collateral damage, is a devastating project from Oscar-winning No Other Land co-directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor that unearths details of a calculated program that has caused catastrophic death and destruction in residential areas of Gaza. Mostly shot at night on rooftops in Tel Aviv to avoid Israeli eavesdropping and to protect its subjects, the systems behind Israel's mass killing of Palestinian civilians are revealed by the people who designed and operated them.

Receiving a record-breaking 24 and a half minute standing ovation at this year's Venice Film Festival, as well as winning the Special Jury prize, NAZA's power is undeniable and it is sure to be a frontrunner at the Oscars for Best Foreign Film and Best Documentary. "An essential, devastating documentary...there’s no turning away from what’s said, you simply can’t un-know what you have heard"—Nicolas Rapold, Sight and Sound.

In English and in Hebrew with English subtitles.
