Summary
Nagham Abu Samra is a Palestinian karate champion from Gaza who had a dream of representing Palestine in sport international platforms. However, her life was cut short by the Israeli genocide in Gaza. "Nagham of Gaza" is a documentary and a theatrical play written and directed by Palestinian award-winning filmmaker Ala'a Al Qaisi, that chronicles Nagham Abu Samra's life. In this conversation, Ala'a engages with Marwan Abu Samra, Nagham's father, to talk about the life of Nagham, his loss, and why it is important to amplify her story through art and film. Some parts of the conversation are in Arabic, translated by the interviewer.
