106 timepieces disappeared from Jerusalem's Museum of Islamic Art in the biggest art heist in Israel's history. 40 years later, the enigmatic thief's widow tells their story.
It all started with a watch, or more precisely, with over 106 rare European timepieces. One piece alone, made especially for the ill-fated French queen Marie Antoinette, was valued at a whopping $30 million. On a quiet Friday evening in 1983, the collection disappeared from Jerusalem's Museum of Islamic Art. It wasn't seen again for a quarter of a century. The biggest art theft in Israel's history left the police scratching their heads. When the timepieces gradually resurfaced a quarter of a century later, the enigmatic thief was dead. His widow, Nili Shamrat from LA, tells director Nili Tal their story for the first time among policemen, lawyers and curators.
A consensual union becomes a brutal assimilation that ends in death and a new beginning. Powerfully moving colours and fascinating sounds transport irritating emotions.
In this film, two individuals with strong personalities are ultimately driven to ruin by selfish possessiveness. But in the end, their death, and their rebirth after corruption is just a part of this continuum called natural life, no matter whether their behaviours should be morally criticised or introspected by us.
Crime boss or fearless dissident? The biggest cyber trial in the history of Israel will determine the fate of a former ultra-orthodox kid who transformed the drug-dealing business.
In March 2019, Amos Dov Silver was arrested at a Kiev hotel, following a global sting operation. Silver, the creator of the drug-dealing mobile app Telegrass, has since been accused by the government of running a crime organisation, but for thousands of Israelis Silver is a fearless folk hero, intent on exposing a corrupt and broken system. Through exclusive footage of Silver, his family and his partners' investigations, as well as secretly filmed footage of Silver in a Ukrainian prison, a polarising portrayal of this man emerges: is he a champion of the people, or a lost soul corrupted by power?
