Background
THE RABBIS’ INTIFADA is a documentary film in progress about the anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews of Neturei Karta. Founded in Jerusalem 80 years ago, Neturei Karta rabbis object to Israeli violence and Jewish statehood. The film tells the story of a Jewish woman who follows some of these rabbis across the globe to find out why they support Palestinian liberation when most other rabbis won’t.
