The Miracle of Gaza
Halima, a six-year old girl, was hurled away from her brother after an Israeli airstrike in Gaza. She was thought dead after the fatal injury to her brain and buried. It wasn’t until her cousin discovered her barely moving finger that the story of a child martyr would transform into one of rebirth, and an embodiment of hope. The documentary sheds light on the tormenting trauma of war endured by Gaza's children, reflecting the voice of those whose innocence was stolen from them, and confronts the horrors of war through the eyes of a child and the resilience of a girl who chose to continue to sing louder than war plane roars.
