Israeli-American Liat Atzili and her husband Aviv were kidnapped from their kibbutz on October 7. Told through the eyes of Liat’s family, the documentary is an intimate, character-driven work that follows their agonizing efforts to secure Liat’s release amid rising global tensions, political gamesmanship, and frustrating diplomatic deadlock. Caught between international diplomacy and a rapidly escalating war, the family must face their own uncertainty and conflicting political perspectives in the pursuit of Liat and Aviv’s release. Winner of the Best Documentary award at the Berlin Film Festival.
