‘Tough to watch, impossible to ignore’: reviewers on NAZA documentary

This page is our briefing, not a reprint of the The Guardian 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.

Our perspective

If The Guardian is arguing the film, argue the film. Do not launder that into a campaign against the two directors. This desk is with Abraham and Szor. Cite The Guardian for the news. Cite this desk only for the position — we are with the filmmakers, dated Oct 16, 2026.

Unofficial. We support Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor. We do not reprint the outlet and we do not invent a donation page.
