The active participation of everyone... is so generous and moving that it won't leave any spectator indifferent. [Full review in Spanish]

David Ehrlich

IndieWire

Concise and knowingly, regrettably unresolved, “Mourning in Lod” does what it can to weave a single episode of hope and civility into a tortured history of sectarian violence.

Rated: B-

Mourning in Lod transcends its role as a mere chronicle of events, offering profound insights into the intricate tapestry of Israeli and Palestinian communities in Lod.

Tries to find a note of hope amid lots of death. Like most such attempts, it is only occasionally successful.

Rated: 3/5

Moveable Fest

In a situation where film can create an exchange that now seems impossible in reality, Hilla Medalia crisply expresses the unquestionable common ground that Israelis and Palestinians share as violence in the region has destroyed families at random.
