💨 Abstract

Hollywood actors and Oscar voters have criticized the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for its response to the assault and arrest of Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal. Around 600 Oscar voters, including Ava DuVernay, Olivia Colman, and Javier Bardem, signed an open letter accusing the Academy of failing to support Ballal, who co-directed the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land'.
