Louder than bombs: Cannes screens tribute to Gaza photojournalist who refused a quiet death Palestinian photojournalist Fatma Hassona refused to be a mere statistic in Israel’s methodical destruction of Gaza. Her endeavour to document her people’s ordeal is the subject of “Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk”, a film by exiled Iranian director Sepideh Farsi, who is organising talks and exhibitions at the Cannes Film Festival to ensure Hassona’s voice remains louder than the bomb that killed her.
