12 (NL) | Netherlands | Arabic, English, Dutch | 85 min
Directed by: Laurens Samsom
7.9

Team Gaza records the lives of four young people daring to dream in Gaza, a land strip sealed off from the outside world. Stuck between walls these four Gazans try to build their lives. One wants to marry his niece, a second tries to rebuild his bombarded house, a third tries to flee the strip and the last turns to weapons.Together they unite in a football team, the only place where they can forget about everything. Outside of the football pitch, they pray and they fight for a better future, despite the hardships in war-torn Gaza. Dutch documentary filmmakers Frederick Mansell and Laurens Samsom followed the main characters for one year. They gained their trust to film in bedrooms and boardrooms, in the narrow Gazan alleys, at the training grounds of the armed Al Qasam brigade and, of course, in the chaotic stadiums. Eventually they left with a story that has never been documented before: the real life of Gaza, shown in the most intimate way, palpable for every human around the world. Online you can follow the lives of 5 football players and a female reporter. Find out who you are in Gaza and travel through the sealed of strip.
