Film review
A remarkably moving docudrama about a tragedy the world must not forget. Watch it to witness a deeply human story that puts a face and a voice to the devastating cost of conflict.
Film review ·
There is a reckless, ruthless kind of provocative brilliance in what Ben Hania is doing. It is a fierce, vehement piece of work.
Film review
This is a film intended to be discomfiting and emotionally devastating. Here, the results have a crushing impact.
Film review
Ben Hania makes sure of that. That tension is what makes The Voice of Hind Rajab such a ruthlessly effective piece of filmmaking. Far too much time and effort has been spent on filmmakers congratulating themselves for telling us stories about fictional suffering and fictional injustice to recognise the rarity of somebody forcing us to confront one of the most defining atrocities of our time.
