MK2 Films has acquired the documentary "NAZA", directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, ahead of its premiere at the Venice Film Festival. The film, shot at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv, explores the systems behind Israel's military actions in Gaza. According to Variety, it shows "in detail the systems behind Israel’s calculated" actions.
The documentary, produced by The Guardian and James Wilson, examines the Israeli military's actions in Gaza, including the term "NAZA", a military acronym used to indicate expected civilian casualties in airstrikes, as reported by Malay Mail. The film is set to compete for the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival.
The directors of "NAZA" are also behind the 2024 documentary "No Other Land", which focused on the destruction of Palestinian communities in the West Bank. Jonathan Glazer served as an executive producer on "NAZA", having previously collaborated with producer James Wilson on "The Zone of Interest", which won the Oscar for Best International Feature Film in 2024, according to Malay Mail.
