The Background Of From Ground Zero
From Ground Zero is a collection of short films initiated by Palestinian film-maker Rashid Masharawi, in response to the current catastrophe occurring in Gaza.
The project brings together 22 filmmakers from Gaza, offering a cinematic perspective on the daily lives, hopes and realities of the inhabitants.
The Idea Behind The Ground Zero Project
The Ground Zero project was designed to give a voice to the people of Gaza and to document their experiences, which often go unheard. In a context where artistic creation is complex, this project has captured the diversity of perspectives in Gaza through a 112-minute film in two parts, made up of 22 short films between 3 and 6 minutes.
These stories explore a range of genres, from fiction to documentary to animation.
