In the UK, No Other Land can be seen on Channel 4 for another 25 days. See why it won Best Doc at the #Oscars this year.
I thought it would just be depressing, but it's compelling and masterful. Even if just for the filmmaking, please consider watching it. 92 mins of your time is a bargain.

"No other land, the winner of the 2025 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature has been unable to obtain distribution in theaters or on streaming platforms in the US."
This is despite being the highest-grossing Oscar-nominated documentary in the rest of the world.

The team behind #NoOtherLand accepts the #Oscar for best documentary and speaks about the Iraeli occupation and apartheid laws.
The Israeli and Palestinian filmmakers behind "No Other Land" delivered their best documentary feature acceptance speech together, starting with Basel Adra.
“No Other Land reflects the harsh reality that we have been enduring for decades and still persists as we call for the world to take serious actions to stop the injustice, and stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people,” he said.
Co-director Yuval Abraham continued: “We made this film, Palestinians and Israelis, because together, our voices are stronger. We see each other, the atrocious destruction of Gaza and its people that must end. The Israeli hostages taken on October 7 that must be freed. We live in a regime where I am free under civilian law, and he is under military law… As I am here, the foreign policy in this country is helping to block this path. Why? Can't you see that we are intertwined? That my people can't be truly safe if his people aren't truly safe and free? It's not too late for life and the living. There is no other way.”
"No Other Land," wins best documentary. It's a searing look at the war in Gaza and still does not have American distribution. Here's more from @IndieWire

„Die Regisseure Basel Adra und Yuval Abraham haben sich sicherlich etwas anderes gewünscht. Doch wenn sich in Deutschland aus ihrem Dokumentarfilm »No Other Land« etwas lernen lässt, dann ist es wohl die Einsicht, dass dem Antisemitismus-Diskurs offizieller bundesdeutscher Stellen wirklich nicht mehr zu trauen ist. Über diesen klugen und berührenden Film, der auf der Berlinale im Februar zu Recht den Dokumentar- und Publikumsfilmpreis gewann, haben staatliche Stellen alle erdenklichen Unterstellungen verbreitet. …“
