A 3-Part Documentary Series

IN THE SHADOW
OF NOW

People are good. Leaders fail them.

An intimate, human-centered examination of the Palestine-Israel conflict — tracing its roots, confronting its present, and asking what comes next.

The Series

Part One

Roots

"How did we get here?"

From the Balfour Declaration to October 7th — how colonial powers manufactured an impossible situation, and how decades of institutional failure made this moment inevitable.

Part Two

Present

"What is actually happening?"

The human cost in real time. October 7 from multiple perspectives, Gaza's humanitarian crisis, and the stories of unexpected humanity amidst devastation.

Part Three

Future

"Where do we go from here?"

The powers sustaining the conflict — arms manufacturers, energy interests, geopolitical games — and what genuine peace would look like, and cost.

This film needs to exist.

Independent documentary. No corporate backing. No editorial compromise. Just the truth, told through the people who live it.
