Bassel Adra

Bassel Adra is a Palestinian filmmaker known for co-directing the documentary 'No Land No Country,' which recently won an Oscar. The film highlights the struggles of the residents of Masafer Yatta against Israeli military actions threatening their villages. Adra was in the news after witnessing an incident where he and his collaborator Hamdan Ballal were attacked by Israeli settlers upon returning from the Oscar ceremony, which he speculated could be a backlash for their film's critical narrative.
