Winner of the Investigative Documentary Award at the Haifa International Film Festival, UNraveling UNRWA chronicles the organization’s 75-year evolution, from its post-1948 origins as a temporary relief organization for Palestine refugees to its complex and often contentious role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Offering an unprecedented inside look, the film explores the unique challenges faced by the only UN agency devoted to a single population, shedding light on its enduring impact and controversies.
