the arabist turned me on to this short yoni goodman animation on and for gaza.

haaretz:

An animator of the celebrated Israeli war film “Waltz with Bashir” has illustrated a new film depicting the life of a fictional boy in the Gaza Strip during the Israeli blockade of the coastal territory.

Yoni Goodman’s short film “Closed Zone” runs only a minute and a half and was created for the NGO Gisha, a group devoted to freedom of movement.

    hmm. the reviews i have read have been positive including anthony lane, edelstein and a.o. scott whom i generally listen to.
    the blog's review seemed to be more about the politics than the film.
    the snippets i have seen look visually interesting. i am curious.
