Synopsis

The film reconstructs the first 18 minutes after the shooting, when an Eritrean refugee was mistaken for a terrorist, shot by a security guard and beaten by bystanders.[1] Security camera footage is inter-cut with eyewitness interviews and video from mobile phones.[2] However, the film does not reveal until two-thirds of the way through that the man on the ground is innocent,[3] leaving the audience to assume until then that he is the terrorist.[3]

Production

The film is directed by Tali Shemesh and Asaf Sudry.[4][5] The security footage used was not released by the Israeli authorities, but was leaked to the filmmakers.[6] The film was produced by filmmaker Alma Har'el in partnership with YesDocu,[5] and executive produced by Megan Ellison and Mark Boal through his film and television production company Page 1.[4][2]

Release

The film aired on Israeli TV in 2016.[3] The United States rights were acquired by First Look Media in early 2017 and it was released on Buzzfeed News and Topic.com on 6 September 2017.[5]

Awards

The film won Best Picture, Best Original Score and Best Director at the 2016 Tel Aviv DocAviv Festival.[7] It won an Audience Award and Best Mid-length documentary at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival in Toronto.[4] The film also won Best Mid Length Documentary at the 2016 International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam[8] and Best Documentary under 60 minutes at the 2016 Ophir Awards.[4][9][10]
