A Grain of Sand
Renad, a young Gazan girl, embarks on a dangerous journey. Carrying only the echoes of her grandmother’s tales and the spark of her own imagination, she searches for her family and the ‘Anqaa’ – the mythical Palestinian Phoenix.
Renad’s story is one of resilience, hope and the right of children to be children.
Presented by Good Chance, A Grain of Sand is written by Elias Matar. Commissioned by London Palestine Film Festival. Supported by Liverpool Arab Arts Festival. Adapted from A Million Kites: Testimonies and Poems from the Children of Gaza by Leila Boukarim and Asaf Luzon.
