Synopsis

Hind Under Siege is a short film that tells the story of a real phone call between the Red Crescent and 6-year-old Hind Rajab, who became trapped in a car while hiding, in Gaza. The film unfolds through the perspective of Rana Al-Faqih, a compassionate and resilient Red Crescent worker, and those who bore witness to the event.
