You can’t deport the facts… #Israel is in crisis mode over #NAZA, the documentary built on #IDF officers' testimony that won the Special Jury Prize in Venice after a 25-minute standing ovation. The Film Council called an "emergency meeting" to rethink festival scoring. Culture Minister Miki Zohar now wants to strip the directors, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, of their citizenship. The official line is that NAZA is a foreign-funded defamation of the army, based on anonymous sources, crossing a red line.

If the people in the film stay anonymous, that probably says more about the danger of speaking than about the strength of the claim. https://kolektiva.social/@oatmeal/117240677075181076 #NAZA #VeniceFilmFestival #GazaGenocide
