Ratings and reviews

A wonderful exploration of the ways in which American Jews (particularly young American Jews) have been taught to think about the state of Israel, Zionism, and the occupation. It's really a move for American Jews to watch, there's a lot here to reckon with.

Extremely well made and eye-opening. I wish more and more people see this to learn about these brave American Jews who are speaking up.

A courageous behind-the-curtain look at the experience of young Jews all over America.
