Gaza

An intimate look into a world continually shaped by conflict and hardship.

In this critically acclaimed rare and poetic vision, directors Keane and McConnell go beyond the breaking news to delve into the heart of everyday life, introducing us to a fisherman, a tailor, a taxi driver, and a surfer—each striving to live with dignity, joy, and purpose amidst the rubble.

The film moves past the headlines to reveal human stories of survival, resilience, and dignity in the face of devastation. It stands as a powerful time capsule, capturing a moment in a region enduring one of the gravest humanitarian crises in modern history. This portrait reveals both what has been lost—and what endures. Once described as the world’s largest open-air prison, Gaza has become a symbol of displacement, devastation, and global indifference. Yet, in these quiet, human stories lies a defiant resilience.

Keane’s new film A Quiet Love will have its world premiere in this festival.
