Ashes of Identity is a bold cinematic investigation into the uncomfortable questions that global community and human rights organizations — such as the UN Human Rights Council, Freedom House, Human Rights Watch, and others — have ignored or deliberately distorted for decades.
This silence, and at times willful manipulation of facts, laid the groundwork for the tragedy that unfolded on October 7.
Why has the international community repeatedly failed to encourage the Palestinians to build their own state, despite Israel’s numerous offers? Why have peace agreements with Palestinian leaders consistently collapsed? Why did the October 7 massacre strike such a deep and lasting wound among Israelis? What role have global media played in shaping anti-Israel sentiment in Europe and the United States? And why does the growing harassment of Jewish around the world echo the horrors of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany? To answer these questions, the filmmakers turn to history — because only through understanding history can we make sense of the present, distinguish right from wrong, and truth from distortion.
In our investigation of modern antisemitism, Ashes of Identity will expose it as a time-sensitive, mutating virus — one that adapts to political climates, rebrands itself in progressive language, and spreads through institutions, academia, and digital platforms. Today’s hatred wears different masks, but its goal remains unchanged: to isolate, demonize, and ultimately erase the Jewish people and their homeland.
Ashes of Identity is aimed especially at younger generations who primarily consume information through social media and online platforms — spaces where misinformation spreads unchecked.
This film offers a powerful, visually compelling, and fact-driven counter-narrative, grounded in the testimony of respected experts. It is a call to reclaim truth, defend memory, and reach the hearts and minds of those not yet poisoned by the virus of antisemitism.
