Overview

On the eve of the Second World War, two British officials are tasked with eradicating terrorism in the Arab and Jewish communities. The peace is shattered when one of them is implicated in the death of Zionist hero Avraham Stern. Michael Winterbottom’s drama is a powerful story of radicalisation, the foundations of the two-state solution and the legacy of British colonialism.
