Hatem Mousa

Hailing from the heart of the Middle East, Hatem Mousa was born in 1969 in Gaza, Palestine. Active since the late 90s, Mousa has become synonymous with the documentary genre, with his most notable films including "Gaza: Between Fire and Sea" and "Gaza: A Gaping Wound," which have garnered critical acclaim but have yet to capture awards at major film festivals. Mousa's authorial style is characterized by his raw and unflinching portrayal of the harsh realities of life in Gaza, unmasking the human struggle and resilience against the backdrop of political turmoil.

Hatem Mousa is not just a filmmaker, he's a storyteller, who through his lens, gives voice to the voiceless and paints a vivid picture of his homeland that demands the world's attention.
