Screening on Netflix My Review Nacido en Gaza (2014). Born in Gaza My Rating 10/10

This heartbreaking and disturbing French documentary is a beautifully filmed account describing the devastating physical and psychological effects of children who by an accident of birth live lives of uncertainty in a war torn country where in any day they could become orphans or lose a brother or sister.

Filmed shortly after the 2014 Gaza War Summer War and told through the eyes of 10 Palestinian children this documentary certainly opened my eyes to what must be happening ten fold today in Gaza and I wondered just how many of these ten children are still alive 9 years after this film?

This documentary film focuses on the violence of the Israel-Palestine conflict and it's effects on the children of Gaza. The documentary follows the story of about ten children who tell what their daily life is like after the horror of the war in Gaza in the summer of 2014.

Children in Gaza are living in an open air prison and this documentary gives the clearest evidence of this. UN Schools, ambulances, homes, farms, no place is safe from bombings, they lose there caregivers, they suffer from PTSD from living under occupation and war their whole lives, they have no food, water, electricity and this film shows you exactly how they survive and tells you in their words, only theirs, not any adults, what they want from the rest of the world, as they watch this film.

Really changes the propagandized version of Palestinians as red in tooth and claw and out for Jewish blood. THESE ARE CHILDREN! With dreams, hopes and massive PTSD resulting from the Protective Edge/Solid Cliff Massare of 2014, where Israel racked up a civilian kill ratio DOUBLE Bashar Assad's in Syria.

This is absolutely heart wrenching to watch. Basically a prison camp for children to die or if they survive they end up with lots of traumatic psychological problems. I can't even imagine how much suffering this place has. Collective trauma. No wonder some of these kids grow up to join the resistance, they don't know any better and just see death all around. They have nothing to look forward to and just live in terror. This film was shot in 2014 and now it's 2023 when the latest war broke out. In the film the children say there is a war every year or 2. So this collective pain just keeps repeating itself. They can't work, they can't live, they can't dream of a future.
