Director: Michael Winterbottom
This gripping historical thriller from legendary British filmmaker Michael Winterbottom weaves a story of star-crossed love with one of political radicalization. The year is 1938, on the eve of the Second World War, and tensions run high in Tel Aviv where the British struggle to maintain order among a mixed Palestinian and Jewish population. English police officer Thomas Wilkin (Douglas Booth) has made his home here — and is madly in love with Shoshana (Irina Starshenbaum), daughter of Zionist Labor movement co-founder Dov Ber Borochov.
