'The Road to Bethlehem', 'Gaza Diver' and 'Lost Palestinian Features': Dubai - DPA: In its seventh session, which began last Sunday, the Dubai International Film Festival presents epics of the struggle of the Palestinian people and the courage of the people of Gaza through films made by Palestinians who were exposed They went through extreme hardships to show the resilience of their people. Among those films monitored by the festival guide is the film “Ticket from Azrael” by director Abdullah Al-Ghoul, which tells the story of a Palestinian man who makes a desperate effort to dig an underground tunnel linking the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip to Egyptian territory. To say that this powerful realistic scene is a vivid picture of the vocabulary of real life in occupied Palestine. The film “The Road to Bethlehem,” by Palestinian director Laila Sansour, tells the personal story of the director who returns to her hometown of Bethlehem in order to present a film that highlights the impact of the separation wall in the West Bank. Through this film, Sansour depicts her ongoing struggle with the bureaucracy imposed by local authorities, in addition to the impact of the Israeli separation barrier on the isolation of the people of Palestine. The festival also witnesses the participation of the documentary film 'Gaza Diver', which was filmed this year in Dubai. The film tells the story of the brave Palestinian young man, Khalil Al-Jadaili, who lost his legs as a result of a horrific bombing that rocked his grandmother’s house during the recent war on Gaza. After moving to Dubai to undergo treatment and install prosthetic legs, he decided to start practicing diving. The festival will screen the film “Lost Palestinian Features” by Palestinian director, critic and journalist Norma Morcos. The director holds a French and a Palestinian passport, but the Israeli authorities prevent her from entering Palestine, and she cannot visit her sick mother, so she spends all her time on the phone hearing weak excuses from civil servants. The film represents a personal photographic journey that the director recalls about her hometown. The documentary film “The Poem of Gaza, Palestine” focuses on the repercussions of “Operation Cast Lead” in 2008, and a Gaza resident says in a tone of bitterness and pain, in the film: “Israel will claim that it is defending itself even if it is on the moon.” If you ask me where does bitterness come from? I will tell you about the heinous bombing with weapons hostile to everything that is humanitarian, including the internationally banned substance white phosphorus, which Israel denied using to attack civilians in Gaza. Directors Samir Abdullah and Khair El-Din Mabrouk and their friends from the Palestinian Center for Human Rights go to Gaza to film the residents left among the rubble and the families living the remains of life, and they make their film a testimony to the courage of the people of Gaza and their determination to rise from under the rubble.
