Red Crescent volunteers receive an emergency call. Hind, a 6-year-old girl, is trapped in a car under IDF fire in Gaza, pleading for help (Hind’s actual voice, preserved as a rescue-call recording, is heard though the volunteers are played by actors). While trying to keep her on the line, the Red Crescent workers do everything they can to get an ambulance to her.

« No other film this year will get more people talking, or more people crying. » (BBC.com)
« Proves quite unavoidably devastating: The original audio footage carries a brutal emotional wallop in any context, and there’s value in making a cinema audience captive to it, unable to pause or stop or avert our ears. » (BBC.com)
« Hania has form in metafiction, however this is a step up even from the queasily gripping Four Daughters. The gravity of the subject has sharpened her storytelling instincts. » (Indiewire)
