The Voice of Hind Rajab - In Conversation with Director Kaouther Ben Hania
Two years ago, the world heard the voice of five-year-old Hind Rajab during her last phone call with the Palestine Red Crescent Society. Trapped in a car surrounded by Israeli tanks, Hind spoke to the dispatcher as she waited for help, alone, and surrounded by the bodies of her uncle and cousins, before her voice was lost… “The Voice of Hind Rajab.” The Oscar-nominated docudrama recreates that devastating call between Hind and the PRCS control room. In this episode of This is Palestine, we speak with filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania about her film “The Voice of Hind Rajab.” Kaouther takes us through the moment she first heard Hind’s voice, the decision to turn that devastating call into a film, and the process of making the film and recreating the call. As the film brings Hind’s voice to the world, it also serves as a powerful call to demand justice and accountability for Israel’s brutal crimes that stole her life.
