From Executive Producer Michael Moore, and Palestine’s official submission for the 2025 Academy Awards, From Ground Zero is a collection of revealing stories from 22 Palestinian filmmakers living through war, who capture their lives in Gaza amidst the conflict. 

Using a blend of animation, documentary, and fiction, they create a powerful testament to the steadfastness of the human spirit. This film serves as a remarkable reflection of how art can thrive even in the darkest times, showcasing the enduring spirit and creativity that emerge amid ongoing devastation.
