MOURNING IN LOD

Esteemed documentarian Hilla Medalia (TO DIE IN JERUSALEM, DANCING IN JAFFA) returns to HIFF with her newest work, which follows the fates of three Israeli and Palestinian families intertwined by a vicious cycle of violence in the city of Lod, Israel. In depicting the complex mixture of anger, grief, love and forgiveness that unfolds, Medalia both gives voice to the pain and loss of victims on both sides of the conflict and dares to imagine a brighter dawn for the region, founded in reconciliation and hope. An MTV Documentary Films release.
