An investigative documentary filmed at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv, and one that does not let the viewer look away.
NAZA is the new film by Israeli journalists Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, both co-directors of the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land. Produced by The Guardian, it builds on investigative reporting published between 2023 and 2025 by The Guardian, +972 Magazine and Local Call.
In the film, 24 members of the Israeli army and intelligence services speak with their identities concealed. Through their testimonies, the film examines how strikes were decided on during the war in Gaza and what they cost civilians. The film alleges that AI-based systems were used to select targets and that civilian deaths were part of that system, not an accident.
The Israeli army rejects these allegations and says that strike decisions were made by people only.
NAZA was the only documentary in the main competition of the Venice Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize. At its premiere it received a standing ovation of almost 25 minutes, considered a festival record. It won the audience award for best European film at San Sebastián and was selected for the Main Slate of the New York Film Festival.
We also invite you to visit acclaimed artist Jane Jin Kaisen’s solo exhibition “Island Beyond the Sea”, now open at Kai Art Center. Made up of seven films, this mesmerising journey takes you deep into Korean traditions and history. It is the first time Kaisen’s work is shown in the Baltics.
The gallery is open until 6 pm, so we kindly ask you to visit the exhibition before the screening begins.
