Documentary 'NAZA' nominated for three European Film Awards

The documentary 'NAZA', directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Shor, has been nominated for Best European Film, Best Documentary, and Best Sound at the European Film Awards. The film has sparked controversy in Israel.

The anti-Israeli film "NAZA" (No Other Land) by Rachel Szor and Yuval Abraham has been nominated for three awards at the 39th European Film Awards, to be held on January 16 in Greece: Best European Film, Best European Documentary, and Best European Sound. The film, which won the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival in September, is presented in the article as a blood libel against IDF soldiers in Gaza. The article cites a study by the Intelligence War Room of the Yesha Council claiming ties between Yuval Abraham and Palestinian elements with links to Hamas. Culture Minister Miki Zohar has turned to the head of the Shin Bet requesting an investigation against the filmmakers and consideration of revoking their citizenship. The article emphasizes that despite the criticism, the filmmakers intend to return to Israel.
