From a number of reviews: ‘The Voice of Hind Rajab’, a true-to-life film that struck us like a lightning bolt, (Humo) The Voice of Hind Rajab is a film that is almost impossible to watch, but burns itself onto your retina forever. It is a painful but highly necessary, almost ritual experience: a wake for a dead child and her people, who have been abandoned by the world. (De Morgen) Palestinians are usually silenced. For them, it is enormously important that someone tells this story. That is why the film is also called ‘The Voice of Hind Rajab’. (Kaouther Ben Hania Regisseur, recorded in De Tijd)
