No Other Land took home Best Documentary Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards, beating fellow nominees Black Box Diaries, Porcelain War, Soundtrack to a Coup d’Etat, and Sugarcane.

The doc had its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival in February 2024, winning the Berlinale Documentary Award for Best Documentary and the Panorama Documentary Audience Award, per Variety. Basel Adra, Rachel Szor, Hamdan Ballal, and Yuval Abraham accepted the Oscar on Sunday night (March 2) from presenters Selena Gomez and Samuel L. Jackson.

Adra, a Palestinian journalist, delivered a speech, during which he highlighted how the film “reflects the harsh reality that we have been enduring for decades, and still resist as we call on the world to take serious actions to stop the injustice and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian people.”

Abraham, an Israeli journalist and film director, added that Palestinians and Israelis collaborated on the film “because together, our voices are stronger.”

“We see each other. The atrocious destruction of Gaza and its people which must end, the Israeli hostages brutally taken in the crime of Oct. 7 which must be freed,” he shared. “When I look at Basel, I see my brother, but we are unequal.”

Abraham also called out U.S. foreign policy, claiming that it is “helping to block the path” to “a political solution without ethnic supremacy” and “national rights” for both Israelis and Palestinians.

Created by a Palestinian-Israeli collective, No Other Land “shows the destruction of the West Bank’s Masafer Yatta by Israel’s occupation and the unlikely alliance which develops between the Palestinian activist Basel and Israeli journalist Yuval,” per its description on the Berlin International Film Festival’s YouTube page. According to the film’s synopsis, Basel and Yuval’s “complex bond is haunted by the extreme inequality between them: Basel, living under a brutal military occupation, and Yuval, unrestricted and free.”

Per the Associated Press, the documentary was shot between 2019 and 2023, wrapping up before the events of Oct. 7.

No Other Land is not currently streaming in the U.S., but is being shown in select theaters across the country, per Tom’s Guide. Per NPR, the documentary does not have a U.S. distributor.
