The Green Prince

Nadav Schirman / Germany, United Kingdom, Israel / 2013 / Czech Premiere / 99 min.


synopsis

The “Green Prince” Mosab Hasan Yousuf, son of one of the Hamas movement leaders, was one of the top agents in the Israeli security agency Shin Bet. Using dramatic elements reminiscent of psychological thrillers, this documentary reveals what led Mosab to the decision to “betray” his people and family, and how he came to terms with it from the perspective of an agent.

biography

Israeli director and producer Nadav Schirman is the creator of such documentaries as The Champagne Spy (2007) and In the Darkroom (2013), which together with The Green Prince form a loose trilogy about terrorism and espionage.
