Gaza in Context

Synopsis

In the summer of 2014, the Gaza Strip became the site of intense conflict as Israel launched a 51-day offensive, conducting 6,000 airstrikes and firing 50,000 artillery shells. Amidst the devastation, Israel portrayed itself as a victim in Western media. Gaza in Context addresses this narrative, aiming to provide a framework that situates Israel's military actions within a larger settler-colonial project in Palestine. The documentary critiques the media's portrayal of the conflict and the implications of these narratives.
