Once Upon a Time in Gaza (2025) is a Palestinian drama you can watch online on iFILM. Gaza, 2007. A student named Yahya picks up shifts at his friend Osama's falafel stand — a counter that quietly fronts a drug trade.
Then the friendship ends in blood. Osama is killed, and Yahya is left carrying grief and a slow-burning urge for payback. A couple of years pass. Gaza's Ministry of Culture plucks him at random to headline a TV series glorifying resistance heroes, and real weapons end up in his hands. The line between a film set and a personal reckoning begins to blur.
Directed by twin brothers Arab and Tarzan Nasser, the film premiered at Cannes, where it claimed the directing prize in Un Certain Regard. It's a bitter tragicomedy about a besieged city where even revenge turns into performance. Eighty-seven minutes, no comfort offered. Stream Once Upon a Time in Gaza (2025) online on iFILM.
