From Ground Zero, Palestine’s 2025 Oscars entry, is a powerful anthology of short films showcasing emerging Palestinian artists. Curated by filmmaker Rashid Masharawi and executive produced by Michael Moore, the project offers raw, diverse glimpses into life in Gaza—blending fiction, documentary, animation, and experimental film.

Heartbreaking yet hopeful, the collection captures resilience amid catastrophe, giving voice to people too often reduced to statistics. Once accepted, then pulled from the 2024 Cannes lineup for political reasons, *From Ground Zero* stands as both an artistic testament and urgent cry for humanity from a people under siege.
