Emmy Award winner Wendy Sachs deftly explores the eruption of antisemitism on American college campuses following October 7, taking us through a timeline of anti-Israel protests fueled by propaganda spread on social media. Featuring dozens of interviews with well-known politicians, academics, activists and impressive student leaders, Sachs’ documentary illustrates how Jewish students are dealing with the scourge of antisemitic campus movements.
