Along with the pain of his loss, he realizes that only he can find the truth of what happened that night. His journey in search of the truth reveals his complex identity for the first time: a spy who worked for the security services, an Arab who converted and became a practicing Jew, a man who felt pride, respect and sympathy for a country that has absurdly and horrifyingly betrayed him.
In this Shakespearean crime drama, star-crossed lovers walk either side of the law, struggling to elevate themselves as the world pushes them down. Family, love, deceit, and violence paint the picture of Daniel, an unassuming hitman, and Elena, an unlikely rookie cop, in this stylized allegory of everyday characters walking through their world of crime and murder. Blood Empires is a wild and award-winning psychological drama, deliberate in its embrace of the 70s crime novel and shot in an Arthouse/Mafia style reminiscent of that glorious time period in crime fiction.
1918 was a pivotal year for both sides in the conduct of the First World War. Decisions made during that year were to have a profound impact on what happened the following year and the eventual outcome of the war. One of those events provides the backdrop for the incredibly successful movie by Sam Mendes, "1917". "1917" was a huge blockbuster success and was inspired by the director's great-grandfather. So how much was fiction and how much was fact? This documentary analyses the movie and looks at what elements are true and why 1917 was such a momentous year in World War II history.
