Critics Consensus

Incorporating real-life elements that are as difficult to witness as they are impossible to forget, The Voice of Hind Rajab is a harrowing docudrama that makes a powerful appeal to humanity.

The result feels like a cavalier stunt-- an audio-documentary shrine erected on a wobbly visual-narrative foundation... “The Voice of Hind Rajab” ultimately overpowers the voice of Hind Rajab.

About as powerful as cinema gets. Its hybrid blend of documentary audio and devastating dramatisation is heart-wrenchingly, shatteringly effective.

a moving dramatization of an event that shook the world via social media. as an emergency service worker myself, I wonder why U.S. based EMS workers didn't boldly related and respond in solidarity with Hind and fellow Red Crescent workers
