🎬 It's been a year since the latest flare-up in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict began on October 7, 2023. To capture the human side of this ongoing struggle, CGTN launched a dedicated production team comprising film crews from Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel.
The team aimed to document the heartbreaking stories of innocent victims caught in the crossfire. Their initial effort, Caught in the Crossfire, marked the beginning of a powerful series that built strong bonds among the diverse team members. Despite coming from different communities, they united with a common mission: to share the voices of those affected by the conflict.
Following their first documentary, they released Caught in the Ceasefire and Caught Between Life and Death, each delving deeper into the lives of people who have lost loved ones, become refugees, or been taken hostage. The team also highlighted the unsung heroes like ambulance drivers, doctors, and anti-war activists who strive to bring aid and hope amidst the chaos.
As the conflict approaches its first anniversary, the team presents their latest work, Caught in a Year of Darkness. This documentary not only reflects the escalation and spread of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict but also serves as a heartfelt call for peace in a region that continues to face turmoil. 🌍💔✨
