Ghost Hunting
Official submission of Palestine for the 'Best Foreign Language Film' category of the 91st Academy Awards in 2019.,Ya Ashikata Al Wardi
Composed by Zaki Nassif
Performed by Soumaya Baalbaki,The film begins with the director recruiting actors--particularly ex-inmates at the Israeli jail named Moskobiya. They all work together to build a reproduction of the inside of the place and later they all play roles.

Much of the movie looks like the movie of the making of the movie. And, because of this, it really takes away from the impact of the subject matter...violations of human rights in Israeli jails. I also found it VERY ironic that much of the film was financed by Abu Dhabi...a country with a horrendous record on human rights and prisoners. Plus, while I am not excusing Israeli treatment of Palestian prisoners (it's wrong and should be exposed), it made me think that the anti-Israel deflects from the problem that abuse of prisoners is NOT an isolated problem of one nation but, sadly, many.

Overall, the film is mildly interesting but could have been much, much stronger and impactful had it taken a different filmmaking approach.,
