KUALA LUMPUR, Nov. 26 -- Al Awda, a documentary about a 2018 Gaza flotilla directed by Singaporean filmmaker Jason Soo, will premiere in Malaysia on December 5, 2025, at the Damansara Performing Arts Centre (DPAC) in Empire Damansara.

The film, first screened at the Singapore International Film Festival in 2024, follows 22 activists aboard the Al Awda flotilla as they attempt to break the Israeli blockade of Gaza in 2018.

Among them are Malaysian academic Afandi Salleh and Singaporean exile Dr Ang Swee Chai.

Drawing from footage that survived the boat's detainment by the Israeli navy, Soo's documentary captures the activists' preparations, rehearsals, and discussions before their inevitable confrontation.
