49th Mill Valley Film Festival (MVFF) Adds Venice Prize Winner ‘NAZA’ to Lineup
This page is our briefing, not a reprint of the Awards Watch report. We logged the item because it sits in the public record around Yuval Abraham, Rachel Szor, and NAZA.
Context already on this site: NAZA, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, premiered in Venice’s 2026 main competition, drew a record standing ovation, and was followed by ministerial attacks, a citizenship-revocation threat, and solidarity letters.

Summary of the article
On Sep 16, 2026, Awards Watch published: 49th Mill Valley Film Festival (MVFF) Adds Venice Prize Winner ‘NAZA’ to Lineup. That is the item we summarise on this page — not a reprint of their article.
Our perspective
The Venice record Awards Watch is writing about does not vanish because a minister is angry. Abraham said Israelis should watch the film. We keep that line. This unofficial page exists so “(MVFF) Adds Venice Prize Winner ‘NAZA’” is not the last word. Abraham and Szor get the last word by being watched.
Unofficial. We support Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor. We do not reprint the outlet and we do not invent a donation page.
