SUMMARY:POSTPONED The Voice of Hind Rajab: dir Kaouther Ben Hania (2025)
DESCRIPTION:Tunisian director Kaouther Ben Hania has created a docudrama that reconstructs the horrifying true story of five-year-old Hind Rajab as she is bombarded by the Israeli army in Gaza in 2024. Rajab survived the original assault by the IDF\, which killed six family members and two paramedics\, and she stayed on the phone for hours to the Palestine Red Crescent Society desperately begging for help. Rajab’s heart-wrenching voice is real; the film fictionally reconstructing the drama of the emergency responders in their call centre office. \nThis is a powerful film\, greeted with a 23-minute standing ovation when shown at the Venice Film Festival last autumn. It also begs a few questions about whether the mix of fiction and fact is at all exploitative; but you can make your own minds up about that … Very highly recommended\, \nIt is presented here by the NYUAD Film and New Media Program and screening as part of the CinemaNA series of contemporary Arab cinema.

SUMMARY:The Red Turtle: dir Michaela Dudoka De Wita (2016)
DESCRIPTION:An animated fantasy drama with no dialogue that tells the story of a man shipwrecked on an uninhabited island. His attempts to escape are foiled by what turns out to be a giant red hawksbill sea turtle; she turns into a red-haired woman\, they reconcile\, and they live together on the island … Suspended between reality and a dream\, this poetic story is a meditation on beauty\, nature and the stages of human life. An Oscar nominee and an award-winner from Cannes\, the film was a co-production of legendary Studio Ghibli and a number of French production companies. \nHighly recommended. Screens in support of the Abu Dhabi Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Project in collaboration with The National Aquarium and the Environment Agency. \n
