Of flesh and blood

Azza Shaaban 2009 docu 27 min.

With Of Flesh and Blood, first time documentary director Azza Shaaban
provides a thoughtful Egyptian perspective on the siege in Gaza, taking us
on a short but intense journey through the Gaza Strip. Filmed over 5 days,
during a brief and unofficial opening of the border between Egypt and Gaza,
Shaaban's exploration was conducted without a crew or shooting schedule.
Operating alone with only a small digital camera, the director enters Gaza
to encounter those living under siege and returns bearing this testimony to
their determination to bring dignity to their day to day lives.
