The most powerful film about the genocide in Gaza is coming to Detroit on November, 1st at 7pm. It’s shot entirely with a mobile phone by a Palestinian vlogger turned war correspondent. The film sold out at screenings in the Middle East and Europe. This is the first America-wide tour!

All proceeds go to publishing more Palestinian films from Gaza and the West Bank.

The story follows Ahmad Ghunaim, a young man whose home is bombed by Israeli missiles. He becomes homeless, with his family, struggling to find safety, food, and water. We see him burning books to bake bread. Yet he keeps filming on his phone, starting each video with: “Hi, it’s Ahmad, I’m alive.”Ahmad’s story is one of both devastation and hope.

Don’t miss this revolutionary film experience and opportunity to speak directly with Ahmad via a Zoom call. Film director and Seen TV Co-founder Yusuf Omar will also be flying into Detroit for the screening, setting the stage for a memorable night. Tickets are selling out fast, get yours now.
