WORLD PREMIERE An impactful portrait of a Palestinian equestrian coach confronting the destruction of the Gaza sports center he built. Mostafa Elghalayini is a witness to the devastation of a beloved community space and its horses. Straightforward and concise, the film captures loss, displacement, and resilience. – Murtada Elfadl
