Tears of Gaza trailer

Disturbing, powerful and emotionally devastating, Tears of Gaza is less a conventional documentary than a record --presented with minimal gloss -- of the 2008 to 2009 bombing of Gaza by the Israeli military. Photographed by several Palestinian cameramen both during and after the offensive, this powerful film by director Vibeke Løkkeberg focuses on the impact of the attacks on the civilian population.

Tears of Gaza makes no overriding speeches or analyses. The situation leading up to the incursion is never mentioned. Similar events certainly occurred in Dresden, Tokyo, Baghdad and Sarajevo, but of course Gaza isn't those places. Tears of Gazademands that we examine the costs of war on a civilian populace.

Israel and USA did this to Gaza, and they are the only ones to blame, their governments of course not the people, and they should pay and repair everything!
