Audiences in Ayr will have the opportunity to see The Voice of Hind Rajab, a 2025 Tunisian war drama based on a real-life tragedy, when it comes to Ayr Town Hall in February 2027.
The screening is scheduled for Thursday 11 February 2027. Doors will open at 6.45pm and the film will begin at 7.15pm. Tickets are listed at £6, with a reduced price of £3 for people under 25.
A film about a desperate rescue attempt
The film’s story begins when Red Crescent volunteers receive an urgent call from a six-year-old girl trapped inside a vehicle under IDF fire in Gaza. The volunteers then face a race against time as they try to reach her.
According to the event listing, the telephone connection between the child and the rescuers becomes the film’s emotional lifeline. Through that connection, the drama follows moments of hope, fear and determination while focusing on the human consequences of war.
The film is directed by Tunisian filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania. Its listed cast includes Saja Kilani, Motaz Malhees, Amer Hlehel and Clara Khoury.
Award-winning 2025 drama
The Voice of Hind Rajab has a running time of one hour and 33 minutes. The Destination South Ayrshire listing describes it as a powerful and deeply affecting drama that approaches its subject with restraint, tension and emotional precision.
The film is also listed as the winner of the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. Its stated themes include courage and compassion, alongside the devastating realities of war.
The event description says the film transforms a harrowing true story into a human cinematic experience rather than providing a sensationalised account. The supplied listing does not give further information about the real-life tragedy on which the film is based.
