A member of Israel's cabinet is threatening to strip NAZA directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor of their citizenship. The film centers on Gaza. The Israeli army is mulling legal action against them. Israel has called the documentary a blood libel.
Film workers have rallied behind the directors. More than 40 groups signed a statement of support. Haaretz wrote Israel is going after the filmmakers instead of investigating Gaza war crimes. The newspaper contends the focus ought to be on possible army abuses, not the film.
