Description

Shot entirely on location in the Middle East, Peter Kosminsky`s (WHITE OLEANDER, BRITZ) epic drama serial THE PROMISE tells the story of 18-year-old Londoner Erin (Claire Foy, LITTLE DORRIT) and her efforts to fulfil a promise made by her grandfather over 60 years ago. When Erin spends her summer in Israel with friend Eliza (Perdita Weeks, LOST IN AUSTEN), she decides to use the opportunity to explore her ailing grandfather`s past in post-WWII Palestine. Len`s (Christian Cooke, CEMETERY JUNCTION) experiences in the British peace-keeping force -as shown in stunning flashback- take Erin on a heart-breaking journey through modern-day Israel.

Customer reviews

Lehrreich, spannend, sehenswert

This customer review refers to a alternative version.

Einfühlsam und historisch korrekt wird aufgezeigt wie Opfer zu Tätern wurden und aus dem vermeindlichen Zion ein auf Vertreibung, Demütigung, Angst, Hass, Gewalt und gebrochener Würde basierender Wahnsinnsstaat entstand. Unbedingt ansehen!

(die französischen Untertitel lassen sich bei dieser Version allerdings nicht ausschalten).
