Democracy Now! speaks with the renowned Iranian filmmaker Sepideh Farsi, the director of the new #documentary “Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk.” The #film is based on regular video calls Farsi made with the #Palestinian photojournalist Fatma Hassona in #Gaza over the course of a year from April 2024 to April 2025.
Hassona was killed with her family by an Israeli missile that targeted her apartment building in northern Gaza. The strike occurred just one day after she learned that the film centered around her life and work had been selected to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. “It’s something that I will never get over,” says Farsi.
