The film had its world premiere in the Gala Presentations section of the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival on 5 September, to a 20 minute standing ovation. It was selected as the Palestinian entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards, making the December shortlist. The film received largely positive reviews from critics, with some criticism of its alleged historical inaccuracies.

It has been banned in Jerusalem, following Israeli authorities detaining the projectionist involved in a screening for interrogation.
