Gaza mon amour (2020)

A fleeting sense of hope

The message of the movie is very deep despite being a comedy. What I absolutely loved about the movie is, unlike other movies that focus on the sad aspect of the lives of Gazans and Palestinians in general, Gaza Mon Amour sheds light on the same reality with one important difference. It delicately and brilliantly succeeds in capturing the subtle and fleeting sense of hope, a sense I have always been crediting to Gazans who despite the stinking smell of death and "impotence" have the courage to dream and start a new every second and every minute. Best movie i've seen in the past 4 years.
