Rappelons au passage que la photojournaliste Fatima Hassouna a été assassinée avec dix membres de sa famille par l’armée israélienne, le 16 avril 2025, précisément après que le film qui lui est consacré ait été sélectionné dans le cadre d’une des sélections parallèles au festival de Cannes 2025.
Mais. Quel rapport ?
A Cannes, une projection sur Gaza annulée après des critiques du maire, David Lisnard
Le diffusion du documentaire «Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk», prévue jeudi, sera reportée à une date ultérieure. La municipalité regrettant que la date coïncide avec la commémoration des attentats de 2015.

Ben may also have copies of the fanzine he created about BULK if you're lucky.
