Synopsis
From Antiquity to the present day, more than 2.000 years of history are brought to the screen for the first time!
What is the origin of the phenomenon we call “antisemitism”? How has it affected the way our societies conceive and construct themselves?
From Antiquity to the present day, from the shores of the Mediterranean to the banks of the Volga, from the Iberian Peninsula to the Polish forests, more than 2,000 years of the history of antisemitism are brought to the screen for the first time! The series will allow the viewer to cross paths with major historical figures as diverse as Stalin, Pope John XXIII, Hitler but also Captain Alfred Dreyfus, King Louis IX, best known as Louis the Saint or 17th century early Enlightenment philosopher Spinoza.
Thanks to traces left around the world, historical reconstructions and analyses by some thirty academics, historians, sociologists and psychoanalysts, the series explores the many facets and evolutions of this “hatred of the Jews”.
