Thank you to MoMI First Look (@movingimagenyc ) for hosting the New York premiere of @OneInAMillionFilm ! We loved getting the chance to watch the film with Israa and an audience again for the first time after Sundance.
Special shoutout to programmer @brandnewfarihah for the meaningful post-screening Q&A.
Sundance award-winning documentary ONE IN A MILLION continues to screen at festivals this spring. If you will be in any of these cities, we hope to see you at a screening!
Just announced: ONE IN A MILLION will be part of Sundance CDMX! We had our world premiere at @sundanceorg in January 2026 where we won the World Cinema Documentary Audience Award and Directing Award, so it’s a delight to extend our Sundance experience in Mexico City where director Jack MacInnes will attend in person for Q&A.

We will be joined by Israa, our film’s protagonist. We spent ten years filming with her and her family, watching her go through so much. It’s a privilege to be with her to share her incredible journey with the world.
“ONE IN A MILLION is a thoughtful and engaging film with a real sense of heart, with Azzam and MacInnes immersing themselves in the life of an ordinary family to detail what can materialise under the most extraordinary of circumstances.”
Thank you @BusinessDocEurope for your glowing review of @oneinamillionfilm out of @cphdox !
Thank you Matt Carey (@kore2 ) for debuting this clip in @deadline , timed to our International premiere at Thessaloniki International Film Festival (@filmfestivalgr ). 💙
An intimate and nuanced coming-of-age story, ONE IN A MILLION illuminates the complexities of the refugee experience while asking a universal question: what does it truly mean to call a place home?

Thank you, @CPHDOX ! It was an incredible experience accompanying ONE IN A MILLION to its second ever European film festival here in Copenhagen! We so enjoyed connecting with our fellow filmmakers, and couldn’t have asked for a better audience — it’s so moving to witness the impact Israa’s story has on global viewers.
