ABOUT THE FILM:
Fatma Hassona, a 25 yr old photojournalist and poet from the Gaza Strip, dedicated her life to documenting the conditions in which Palestinians are forced to exist. In this documentary, beautifully and movingly pieced together from video calls between her and Iranian filmmaker Sepideh Farsi recorded throughout 2024 as Israel’s war on Gaza raged, Hassona builds a visual diary conveying the everyday plight of her people and the suffering being inflicted upon displaced and orphaned children. Even amid the death and destruction of constant missile strikes, her message remains one of dignity, humanity and hope.
On 16 April 25, an Israeli missile killed Hassona and her family in an alleged targeted assassination. In paying tribute to Hassona’s memory and reminding us not to look away from the injustices of the world, Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk is more than just a powerful work of cinema – it’s a documentary that demands to be witnessed.
