The Voice of Hind Rajab: Screening & Talkback

January 29, 2024. Red Crescent volunteers receive an emergency call. A six-year-old girl is trapped in a car under fire in Gaza, pleading for rescue. While trying to keep her on the line, they do everything they can to get an ambulance to her. Her name was Hind Rajab.

The MoMA's synopsis reads: "Tunisian director Kaouther Ben Hania (Four Daughters) reconstructs those harrowing hours in this gut-wrenching docudrama, interweaving Hind’s voice—excerpted from the original audio recordings—with dramatized reenactments of the call center responders. A powerful memorial to a voice that shall never be forgotten, the film won the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice International Film Festival."

Tunisian auteur Kaouther Ben Hania is the Director. Nadim Cheikhrouha, Odessa Rae and James Wilson serve as producers. Brad Pitt, Joaquin Phoenix, Rooney Mara, Jonathan Glazer, Alfonso Cuarón, Jemima Khan, Frank Giustra, Guillaume Rambourg, Elizabeth Woodward, Sarah Rambourg, and Sabine Getty are among the executive producers of this important award-winning film.

Join us a for a special pre-release screening and a talkback with members of the production team.
