— ‘In packed cinemas across Italy some people in the audience held the Palestinian flag and there was applause at the end of the film. But at the Tibur, a small cinema in the San Lorenzo area of Rome where NAZA is being screened in both of its auditoriums, the audience watched in complete silence. “In general, the public was in shock as they watched,” said Marco, a member of staff at the cinema. “There was silence throughout the whole film. Even at the end, nobody spoke.” The film’s run at the Tibur has been extended for at least another week, he added. More than 150 other cinemas in Italy have extended programming and the number is expected to grow. “As long as theatres want to show it, NAZA will continue to be screened,” Andrea Romeo, founder of I Wonder Pictures, the film’s distributor in Italy, told La Repubblica.’ https://www.theguardian.com/film/2026/sep/30/gaza-documentary-naza-beats-avengers-endgame-encore-to-top-italian-box-office
