Palestine/France/Qatar/UAE/Switzerland, 2024, Rashid Masharawi and Laura Nikolov, 112’ From Ground Zero brings together 22 short films created by talented filmmakers from Gaza. Launched by renowned Palestinian filmmaker, Rashid Masharawi, the initiative was born against the backdrop of conflict and provides a platform for young artists to express themselves through their craft. Each short film, presents a unique perspective on the current reality in Gaza. The project captures the diverse experiences of life in the Palestinian enclave, including the challenges, tragedies and moments of resilience faced by its people. Using a mix of genres including fiction, documentary, docu-fiction, animation and experimental cinema, From Ground Zero presents a rich diversity of stories that reflect the sorrow, joy and hope inherent in Gazan life. Despite the harsh filming conditions, Gaza's vibrant artistic scene shines through this collection, offering an intimate and powerful portrait of daily life and the enduring spirit of its people. The Closing Night of London Palestine Film Festival 2024 (https://www.palestinefilm.org.uk) is a simultaneous screening of this portmanteau of 22 short films from Gaza made over the past year. From Ground Zero will be screened in east, west, and south London cinemas. This LPFF screening is in partnership with the Critical Collective.
