The project "Gaza Sunbirds" by Flavia Cappellini (ESoDoc 2025) has been awarded the Think-Film Impact Award at the Docs-in-Progress showcase in Cannes.
“Gaza Subirds” tells the story of a young amputee cyclist and his underdog team of bike racers chasing their dream of representing Palestine on the world stage. Their six-year odyssey becomes a matter of life or death adaptation as bombs descend on Gaza.
We warmly congratulate Flavia and her team on their success and are delighted that the project is progressing!
