This was really insightful and powerful! Power to the jewish people going against the grain and speaking up for the things that they see. This was really well done too by showcasing people who still are indoctrined without making it aggressively negative. I think it gave an objective view of how indoctrination happens and the need to question narratives we have been taught not only in this circumstance, but always. I think this was done with good intention and if you want to see why and how people are made to think bigoted thoughts without taking away from the manufactured fear that fuels it, in a really delicate way. Fully recommend everyone to go in with an open mind.
Powerful and Relevant - about the new generation of Jewish young people who have discovered the misinformation they have been brought up to believe as true. It highlights their journey of unlearning and then advocating for those who they thought were their enemy. Challenging the concept of Birthright and enlightening with a new vocabulary from on the other side of the wall; "occupation", "settlement" and "apartheid"... the unmentionables. Thank you to the producers and participants for showing your face and in some cases even giving your name. It takes great courage and commitment to rise up against a powerful machine. I applaud you.
Since October 7, we've been on a very fast track of getting up to date on over 75 years of history. It's possible most things in this documentary are less new than when it came out nine months ago. However, I watched it with my mom which was perfect for her. I recommend highly for you or those you know that need some of the basics. Others, have mentioned it being anti-s*metic. I see no evidence of this. It's typically referred to this way by zionist.
If you look at the reviews based on country, its quite revealing.
Those giving the documentary "1" star are primarily US and Israel. Clearly biased reviews.

A very important film for particularly Jewish people, by Jewish people, but also for anyone supporting human rights, particularly the liberation of the Palestinian people.
It confronts the indoctrination for the support of Israel and any cost, and right now, the unquestioning support for Israel, is very dangerous for Jewish people.
I've seen this film twice and hope it becomes available globally. I feel it has supported the self-education I've been seeking to understand how and why Israel is bombarding Gaza and the West Bank and committing war crimes with the backing of the U. S. and the U. K.
Kudos to the film makers for their bravery in making this film, too. I wish they could do Q&A after every showing.

I loved this film. It wonderfully displayed the realization of events and helped me understand the perspective that one may have that differs from my own. No one was highlighted in a bad light it only showed true colors and I didn't come out disgusted by anyone if anything I'm more hopeful of how to advocate for change in a flaw system that the film so clearly explains. I also feel this film is the complete opposite of antisemitism and in fact shows the real threat that's out there that I didn't know is so clearly still at large. It highlights the beauty in inter faith inter culture relationships and encourages hope in humanity. Great film!
