- The warrant for the arrest of Auschwitz's "Angel of Death" Dr. Josef Mengele was a catalog of horror. A look back of the crimes and life of the SS Doctor who sent 400,000 people to the gas chambers in the pursuit of racial purification.
- At 80 years of age, Colonel David Rokni is preparing to command the national ceremony of Israel's Independence Day. Just like in each of the last 30 years, he goes through an arduous series of training, routine formation and foot drills for the traditional military parade - a job no other person is capable of. A week before the ceremony, disaster strikes unexpectedly. For the first time, Rokni has to cope with an unfamiliar situation during a ceremony that would transform his life.
- More than 70 years ago, the Kiel gynecologist Carl Clauberg tried to sterilize hundreds of girls and women in the German concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau on behalf of SS Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler. Many died as a result of the inhuman experiments. The last survivors tell of the terrible experiences they had in the camp.
- This historic document of Palestine during the tumultuous 1920s includes footage from three rare films by Ya'akov Ben Dov, the father of Hebrew cinema. Preserved in a joint project by the National Center for Jewish Film and the Israel Film Archive, these works include Return to Zion (1920-21), The Rebirth of a Nation (1923), and Romance of Palestine (1926). Considered lost for more than 70 years, the films depict the early builders of the Zionist vision who pioneered the Third Aliyah and the Fourth Aliyah and contain images of settlements and activities in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Rishon le Zion and Old Jaffa. From this rare archival footage, director and scholar Ya'akov Gross has created a vital and accessible look at a formative period in Israeli history whose legacy continues to influence Israeli politics today.
