About

Docudrama about the Palestinian Red Crescent's emergency response when five-year-old Hind Rajab pleads for rescue from a car under fire in Gaza.

The Voice of Hind Rajab is a docudrama directed by Kaouther Ben Hania. It centres on the Palestinian Red Crescent’s emergency response on 29 January 2024, during the Israeli invasion of Gaza. Omar (Motaz Malhees), a new volunteer, takes an emergency call from a girl being shot at near the Fares Gas Station in northern Gaza. The line cuts before she can identify herself. His co-worker Rana (Saja Kilani) gives him a sticker with the icon of a person, a symbol for unnamed victims who have called them. Then the girl’s uncle, in Germany, calls to say that five-year-old Hind Rajab is still alive, trapped in the same car and pleading for rescue. Omar calculates that an ambulance would need eight minutes to reach her. The control-room scenes are reconstructed from testimony and transcripts; the voices are real.
