The Palestinians hope that Oscar will win “any other land

Al Qaeda, West Bank – Only last week, the Israeli forces came and torn a Palestinian family shed in this remote mountainous corner of the West Bank, says residents. This was the most recent destruction targeting a group of villages whose population is threatened with exposure.

The Palestinians in the Masifer Yata region chanted the Oscars of the documentary “No Land”, which depicts life in the besieged society, and they hope that they will get some assistance to them.

In his kind, one of the villages that make up Massifer Yata, Salem Adra said that his family remained all night to attend an Oscar. Watch as his older brother, Basel Adra, co -director of the film, on the stage for accepting the Best Documentary Film.

“It was a big surprise, such joy,” he said.

“There is no other land” that follows the ADRA Basel, which risks arrest to document the destruction of Masafer Yatta on the southern edge of the West Bank occupied by an Israeli, joined the co -director, Israeli journalist and director, Yuval Abraham.

The joint Palestinian -Israeli production won a series of international awards, starting with the Berlin International Film Festival in 2024. It gained five years in this homes, and gained a larger resonance among the destroyed Israel military campaign in Gaza, which forced almost its residents from their homes, in addition to increasing raids in the West Bank.

Meanwhile, the film raised Hackles in Israel, which was carried out by a bloody attack on October 7, 2023 by Hamas, who sparked the war.

Salem Adra, who sometimes helped in his brother’s film movie, said he hoped to open Oscar “Win” with the world’s eyes on what is happening here in Massifer Yata.

“It is a victory for all Palestine and everyone who lives in Masifer Yata,” he said.

He said that since the first time was released, threats and pressure against his family have increased. He stoned their car by the settlers. After the film won a prize at the Berlin International Film Festival a year ago, the army has repeatedly returned to the family home, and the time of his father was once detention, examining his phone and asking, “Why are you filming?”

The appointed Israeli army appointed Masifer Yata as a live training zone in the eighties and the order of the population, most of them Arabs, Badwin, to expel them. Israel said that the Bedouins had no permanent structures in the region. But the families say that they lived and headed from their sheep and goats throughout the region long before Israel was arrested by the West Bank in the Middle East war in 1967.

After a 20-year legal battle by the population, the Supreme Court in Israel upheld the expulsion order in 2022. About 1,000 residents remained in place, but the forces are regularly moving to the demolition of homes, tents, water tanks, olive-bed-and Palestinians can come at any time.

Salem Adra said that the last destruction came on Wednesday, when the forces tore a family shed in a nearby village.

Salem Adra, standing on a series of rocky hills over Tawwani, stands that the Jewish -supported Jewish settlers have set up 10 settlement sites around the village since October 7, 2023.

Shepherd Hammdah, 48, led his flock of goats across rocky ground. He referred to one location – with tents and a trailer shaving the flag of an Israeli military unit – on the other side of a small valley. Farmers are no longer inclined to olive grove in the valley for fear of attack.

Al -Hamdad said that the army uses drones to drive herds if they approach the outposts. “The settler attackers. When we start from sheep, we cannot go to some extent. Only this stage can reach it.” He referred to the ruins of a house that said that the settlers were destroyed, expelled the family and burned their furniture.

In Israel, the film has not received a little attention to the media since its release – and what is the attention it got angry. When she won the Documentary Film Award at the Berlin Festival, her Israeli director Ibrahim was subjected to the risk of accepting the end of the war in Gaza without mentioning the enthusiasm of the enthusiasm and taking the hostages in Gaza.

In a speech accepting Oscar, Ibrahim talked about both. But this did not do much to calm criticism in Israel. The Minister of Culture and Sports Mickey Zohar described the victory as “a sad moment for the world of cinema.” He said that the film distorted the reality and accused its facilities of using “defamation” of Israel as a way to help strengthen the documentary.

Israeli films that have been nominated for international prizes are usually received Premium Awards in Israel.

But after Hamas’s attack, “Everyone is in mourning or in shock, we can hardly hear any other voice on any other topic.”

On Monday, she said it was not yet clear whether the victory would attract more attention in Israel. But she said: “It will not be possible for people to ignore managers’ message, including for people who have not seen the movie. “

In the admission letter on Sunday night, Basel called on the world to “stop injustice and stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.”

He said that he hopes that his newly born daughter will be “you will not have to live in the same life that I live now … I always feel settler violence, demolishing homes, and strong clarification.”

On Monday, his brother Salem walked from the hills with his 4 -year -old son to a family home.

He examined the CCTV cameras created by the family around the house to monitor the settlers. They were still filming.
