Oscar-Nominated ‘Four Daughters’ Wins Best Documentary At César Awards; Director Kaouther Ben Hania Speaks Out Against “Massacre” Of Gaza’s Children
Oscar-nominated doc 'Four Daughters' won France's César Award. Director Kaouther Ben Hania highlighted Gaza's children in her acceptance speech.
As she accepted the award, Tunisian-born Ben Hania turned her attention to the situation in Gaza, which Israel invaded after the October 7 Hamas terror attack on Israel that killed an estimated 1,200 men, women and children and in which Hamas seized more than 240 hostages (roughly a quarter of the hostages are believed dead). After the Arab Spring rocked Tunisia, the two eldest girls rebelled against their mother’s strict rules by embracing something far more extreme – the radical Islamist dictates of ISIS. Four Daughters, released in the U.S. by Kino Lorber, has made over $100,000 at the domestic box office, more than any other of the Oscar-nominated feature documentaries this year, which include 20 Days in Mariupol, The Eternal Memory, Bobi Wine: The People’s President, and To Kill a Tiger.
