Recently awarded the Premio José María Forqué for the best full length documentary, Nacido en Gaza (Born in Gaza) was filmed during the Israeli offensive that devastated the Gaza Strip in July and August 2014. The film follows the day to day life of ten Palestinian Children beneath the bombardment.
An intimate and profound portrait on how violence transforms lives for ever. A film by the prize winning director Hernán Zin who takes the viewer by surprise with techniques that are rarely used in war zones. The use of slow motion, time lapses, and drones produce sequences as beautiful as they are brutal, an unusual view of what this war was like. Finally, three months after the end of the conflict, Hernán Zin returns to Gaza to bring us up to date on the life of these ten children.
