One year of war in Gaza: life, death, and hope - BBC World Service Documentaries

Life and Death in Gaza, a new film from the World Service’s #BBCEye investigations team for BBC Storyville, is made by four Palestinians living through extraordinary times. Filmed from the first days of the war, Khalid, Aya, Adam, and Aseel document their own lives as they endure bombing raids, multiple evacuations, family separations and reunions, deaths, and even the birth of a new life amidst the chaos.

Interwoven with these are observational scenes filmed by other filmmakers on the ground, as well as personal archives from before the war. Together, they tell a uniquely human story about the first year of the war in Gaza, challenging assumptions about the conflict and those caught in it. The film showcases stories of resilience, loss, and hope amid a deep and desperate humanitarian crisis.
