In this provocative look at strange political bedfellows, Israeli filmmaker Maya Zinshtein investigates the alliance between American evangelicals and Israel, and their influence on US foreign policy during the Trump administration. Why do American church leaders, even in poor communities, encourage parishioners to make donations to Israel’s foremost philanthropic organization? Because they fervently believe Jews will play in crucial role in Jesus’s impending return. With unparalleled access, the film exposes a stunning backstory where financial, political and messianic motivations intersect with the apocalyptic worldview that is insistently reshaping the relationship between the US, Israel and the Middle East.
Includes a special post-film Q&A with director Maya Zinshtein.
