“Remember the title of this film because we’re going to talk about it for years to come. We are also going to teach it in both film courses and courses on Israel/Palestine.” (Prof. Olga Gershenson, author of New Israeli Horror: Local Cinema, Global Genre)
Winner, Best Israeli film at the 2025 Docaviv Film Festival
Award-winning filmmaker Netalie Braun’s bold, visually arresting trilogy explores how cinema can be weaponized in Israeli society. Through three gripping true stories – a military reenactment that displaces an entire village, a staged police raid endangering a Palestinian family, and a haunted military props supplier – Braun blends archival footage with immersive cinematography, pulling back the curtain and showing chilling collisions between fiction and real lives. More than simply an exploration of propaganda, all three stories collectively offer an original, complex–and at times surprising–portrait of how violence and trauma can be both reflected and perpetuated through the camera.
