By nightfall, Liat and Aviv are captives in Gaza along with 250 other people – 12 of whom, like Liat, are American citizens. Caught between international diplomacy and a rapidly escalating war, their family must face their own uncertainty and conflicting perspectives in the pursuit of Liat and Aviv’s release. This agonising process, and the ultimate fate of their loved ones, challenges how the members of the family understand themselves and their place in the conflict. Through the intimate lens of a family’s experience, Holding Liat poses complex questions of identity across generations, as the family is thrust into the epicentre of a global conflict rapidly unfolding in real-time. “Director Brandon Kramer does an impressive job revealing the personal and geopolitical aspects of a heart-breaking true story.” – The Hollywood Reporter “Emotionally rich and politically thought-provoking.” – ScreenDailyPT1H33M152025-09-11
