[“The Voice of Hind Rajab” director] Ben Hania has said of the project: “The heart of this film is something very simple, and very hard to live with. I cannot accept a world where a child calls for help and no one comes. That pain, that failure, belongs to all of us. This story is not just about Gaza. It speaks to a universal grief. I believe that fiction (especially when it draws from verified, painful, real events) is cinema’s most powerful tool. More powerful than the noise of breaking news or the forgetfulness of scrolling. Cinema can preserve a memory. Cinema can resist amnesia.” [https://deadline.com/2025/08/brad-pitt-joaquin-phoenix-join-gaza-movie-voice-hind-rajab-1236498170/]
