'From Ground Zero' Review: Gazans Get a Voice

When Michael Moore signed on as an executive producer for From Ground Zero, he called the Oscar-shortlisted film "a cinematic miracle." That's certainly true, but as Matt Zoller Seitz writes, "From Ground Zero is a rare work for which superlatives are not only inadequate but useless." It's hard to convey how incredible it is that we can even see this film. It's an anthology of 22 short films, all shot in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war (or genocide, as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch call it) of the past 15 months, and all directed by and featuring Gazans.
