Kentucky Gaza

Filmed in the heart of the Gaza Strip in the spring of 2025 and produced by WeWorld as part of a project funded by the European Union, in collaboration with Save the Children, the film tells everyday stories of resistance and humanity: a barber who continues to welcome his clients amid the rubble, restoring dignity and beauty; Wafa, a woman who dedicates her life to children with disabilities or those who have been orphaned, offering care, education, play, and a sense of normalcy. An intimate narrative that illuminates the strength of the community even in one of the world's most fragile and war-torn contexts, like Gaza, where the population has been under constant attack for two years and under blockade for over 18 years.

During the siege of their city, a group of ordinary people struggle to survive amid hunger, snipers, and bombardments, while clinging to human connection, love, and small daily pleasures. Faced with impossible moral choices and deep psychological strain, their lives become inseparable from the siege itself.

The Place is short film about Palestine that calls out the Palestinian suffering and what the people of Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood are going through right now.

Our homes resemble us. They are our memories and our futures. Right now, 150,000+ Palestinians are at risk of losing their homes. At the heart of Israel’s apartheid system is to deny Palestinians a home. Help end demolitions and forced evictions. Take action with Amnesty International now.
