Filmmaking & Jewish Identity: The Battle for Truth with Duki Dror

• Jennifer Weissmann • Season 5 • Episode 49

🎥 What stories would you tell if your identity—and your survival—were on the line?

In this powerful episode, award-winning Israeli filmmaker Duki Dror joins host Jennifer Weissmann to uncover the untold stories shaping Israel and Jewish identity today.

Dror, the visionary mind behind SuperNova — his gripping new documentary capturing the 24 hours following the October 7 Hamas terror attack at the Nova music festival — offers an unfiltered, insider perspective few can share.

Born in Tel Aviv to Iraqi Jewish refugees, Dror’s work confronts both Western and Middle Eastern narratives head-on, shining a light on the trauma of Jewish exile, the fight for cultural survival, and the fragile line between freedom and extremism.

🎬 For Jewish filmmakers, storytellers, and creatives everywhere, this episode is a masterclass in using film as a weapon for truth, empathy, and cultural resilience.

👉 If you believe in the power of storytelling to shape the future — and to fight back against erasure — you can’t miss this conversation.
