Oscar Film: The Voice of Hind Rajab

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Mar 13

[REBROADCAST FROM January 12, 2026] The film "The Voice of Hind Rajab" tells the story of the attempted rescue of Hind Rajab, a young girl who was stuck in a car in Gaza after every other family member in the car had been shot and killed. Rajab was on the phone with the Red Crescent Society for hours as they tried to send an ambulance to retrieve her. The film uses the real audiotapes of those calls, but uses actors to play the Red Crescent employees in a unique blend of fact and fiction. Director Kaouther Ben Hania discusses the film, which is nominated for Best International Feature Film at this year's Academy Awards.
