"Blood and Tears"
Running Time: 73 minutes
Like an open wound that will not heal the Arab-Israeli conflict refuses to be resolved. Acclaimed documentary producer and director, Isidore Rosmarin, and co-producer, Jeff Helmreich, have made "Blood and Tears" - the definitive film on this seemingly irresolvable conflict.
Having acquired over 20 years of news and documentary production experience working at major television network programs such as CBS's "60 Minutes", NBC's "Dateline", Court TV, A&E and many other prime-time shows, Rosmarin now uncovers the truth beneath the hype and the headlines.
Rosmarin and his team of Middle East experts have gone right to the source: the ministers and mullahs, the fanatics and peaceniks, the soldiers and terrorists, and the ordinary families battling extraordinary forces as they try to live a normal life.
They have interviewed top officials from both sides, from former Israeli Prime Ministers to senior Palestinian officials to the leaders of the militant extremist group Hamas, Sheikh Bitawi and the late Dr. Abdel aziz Rantisi.
They have also interviewed renowned Mideast scholars Bernard Lewis and Fouad Ajami and the foremost Palestinian scholar, Rashid Khalidi.
"Blood and Tears" explores the origin of the confrontation itself, and challenges many of the deep-rooted myths we all hold about this epicenter of human conflict.
