This is a brave Israeli series taking a stark look at a cancer in Israeli society.

The acting is superb, the script, pure genius, the cinematography and camera work, divine.

As for politics, this series is not about the kidnapped settlers, its about the murder of the Palestinian boy Mohamed Abu Khdeir from Shoafat but the two sides are portrayed with masterful depth, compassion & extremely thought out and thoughtful care for detail. I found the depictions well balanced and thought provoking and if you were wondering what's the deal with all the rest of the hateful, badly written & moronic reviews, well, if you want to understand them then that's just another reason why you must see this show.

I realize now after watching the first 4 episodes that every bad review must come from israelis and their biased political point of view and have nothing to do with the series quality. I am so glad I didnt listen to them because I would have missed a fantastic series on par with Fauda and Hatufim. The acting, specially Mohammed's father, is great and believable, the script and tension are superb!!

The story looks more like a documentary than a drama - it is so real. It is painful to watch, but it's done very well and all the actors are perfect in their roles. You can almost smell the reality of the undivided conflicted city of Jerusalem. Don't be impressed by low grades given to the series by right wing Israelis - they fear that people will watch the series. It's a realistic masterpiece!

Great show. A turthfull retelling if a horrible event. Exact and full of facts, it shows a complex situation in a complex conflict and a mix of nationalism, human feelings and religoun. Do not believe the wave of hate and nad reviews made by one week old accounts of Ultra right Israiles. Watch for yourself and trust the Metric and the fresh score
