"من نقطة الصفر +"

غزة، القصص غير المكتملة

أُطلقت مبادرة "من المسافة صفر" لأفلام غزة بواسطة المخرج السينمائي رشيد مشهراوي خلال الحرب الدائرة على غزة. جاءت هذه المبادرة من إدراك أن الأصوات الحقيقية لأهل غزة نادراً ما تُسمع، مما أكد الحاجة لتوثيق تجاربهم وسرد الحكايات غير المروية وحفظ الذاكرة الجماعية.

وبعد النجاح الذي حققته الأفلام التي تُعرض حالياً في أهم المهرجانات في العالم العربي والأجنبي، وكونها مرشحة للعرض في بعض القنوات الفضائية، ظهرت فكرة المبادرة الجديدة.

بالرغم من الظروف الصعبة التي يعيشها قطاع غزة، إلا أن هناك مساحة إبداعية مزدهرة مليئة بالمواهب الفنية التي يجب دعمها لتستمر في إبداعها. ونظراً لقدرة الفن على التأثير في الواقع، من المهم تمكين صناع الأفلام في غزة من التعبير عن أنفسهم وتعزيز إبداعهم، بهدف إنتاج سينما فنية تركز على الحياة اليومية، المخاوف، الأحلام، والآمال لدى سكان غزة.

“From Ground Zero +” will consist of seven short documentaries, each ranging between 20 to 30 minutes, and three feature-length documentaries. Each film can also be shown individually. This approach allows for the presentation of diverse perspectives and the innovation of different production and filming methods, often extending over longer periods and covering various locations throughout the Gaza Strip.

يهدف المشروع إلى نقل السرد والتصورات من خلال "من نقطة الصفر +" مع التطلع إلى الوصول إلى جمهور واسع في جميع أنحاء العالم.

لتنفيذ المشروع، تم تشكيل لجنة اختيار مكونة من ثلاثة سينمائيين وفنانين، لضمان جودة المشروع والإشراف عليه وتقييم المشاريع المقترحة. إلى جانب طاقم إداري لضمان التنسيق والتنفيذ السريع

ستعمل اللجنة مع السينمائيين على تطوير الأفكار حتى تصبح جاهزة للتصوير، بناءً على معايير واضحة تشمل إعطاء الأولوية للطبيعة الشخصية للقصص، أصالتها، موضوعاتها، ومعالجتها، فضلاً عن موهبة صناع الأفلام.

 

مع التركيز على القصص غير المروية والتي تبدو أحياناً غير معقولة، ومع ذلك يتم تصويرها في غزة من قبل صناع أفلام متميزين

بعد تجربتنا مع مشروع "من المسافة صفر"، الذي تم من خلاله إنجاز 22 فيلمًا قصيرًا بالتعاون مع 22 سينمائيًا في غزة، زادت قناعتنا بإمكانية تحقيق هذا المشروع، رغم صعوبته التي تتشابه مع الوضع في فلسطين. ومن الناحية العملية، نضمن جانبين أساسيين

في غزة نفسها، وبعد ثمانية أشهر من الإنتاج والتصوير خلال الحرب، تمكنا من تكوين فريق منسقين ومساعدي إنتاج ذوي تجارب عملية، مهمتهم تزويد صناع الأفلام بالموارد الفنية والبشرية اللازمة للإنتاج، فضلاً عن إدارة ومراقبة الميزانيات. وبقدر ما قد يبدو الأمر سرياليًا، فإننا نتمكن من إرسال الأموال إلى غزة بسهولة نسبية رغم الظروف.

كما يتولى هؤلاء المنسقون عملية نقل المواد المصورة والبيانات إلى مرحلة ما بعد الإنتاج. على الرغم من أن عمليات النقل تستغرق وقتًا طويلاً أحيانًا، إلا أنها تنجح في النهاية.

من الناحية الإدارية، نحرص على الحصول على الحقوق من جميع المخرجين قبل بدء التصوير لضمان توزيع الأفلام عبر مختلف القنوات في جميع أنحاء العالم. فنحن نسعى بالفعل للتوزيع الدولي والجودة.

وبصرف النظر عن الاستثمارات من صندوق أفلام مشهراوي وصندوق الإنتاج المشترك، يتم تمويل الميزانية الأولية من قبل شركاء، مساهمين، متبرعين، ومانحين من القطاع الخاص..

Seven short films, seven directors

Very Small Dreams

I’itimad Wishah – 20′

In the displacement tents of Rafah, Palestinian women try to preserve the well-being of their bodies despite the absence of the most necessities, those essential items no woman can do without, anywhere and at any time. Through living their daily realities, we discover the alternatives and innovations these women employ to protect their bodily dignity, especially during pregnancy, childbirth, and the period that follows, where bringing a child into life becomes a grueling adventure in a setting defined by the absence of life. Very Small Dreams takes us on a hidden, silent journey in which women claim the simplest of very small dreams.

Hassan

Mohammed Alshareef – 30′

When the starvation war in northern Gaza intensified, Hassan, a seventeen-year-old boy, never expected that his dangerous attempt to bring home a sack of flour would end with four days of detention, followed by fifteen months of forced displacement from the north to the south of Gaza. During this time, he lived alone in exile, moving from one overcrowded shelter to another, searching for food and a place to sleep, while repeatedly trying to reunite with his family scattered between loss and waiting. He lost his younger brother before displacement, and his father during the expulsion. The haunting desire to return home never left him, driven by the hope of being close again to what remained of his family — his mother and sister.
