From Ground Zero
Palestine's Official Submission for the 2025 Academy Awards, From Ground Zero is a powerful collection of short films by 22 Palestinian filmmakers living through war in Gaza. Through a unique blend of animation, documentary, and fiction, these stories capture the unyielding steadfastness of the human spirit and enduring creativity that thrives even in the face of relentless devastation.
“The film is a stirring testament to art as a tool of survival, to the power of community art-making to affirm life in the face of omnipresent death.”
— Eli Friedberg, Slant Magazine
