How NAZA Connects to No Other Land
NAZA is connected to No Other Land through directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, who were two of the four co-directors of the Oscar-winning documentary. The films are separate works with different subjects, structures and production histories.
Shared filmmakers
Abraham and Szor moved from a collaborative documentary about the occupied West Bank to a film centered on Israeli military and intelligence testimony about Gaza.
How coverage describes the connection
Coverage of NAZA frequently identifies the pair through No Other Land, which won the Oscar for best documentary.
Do not collapse the films
No Other Land is not a prequel to NAZA and NAZA is not a continuation in a narrative sense. The connection is principally through filmmakers and a continuing interest in documenting Israeli state power and Palestinian experience.
