Shadows In Palestine Trailer v4

"Shadows In Palestine" takes you into the lives of a German community who immigrate to Palestine in 1866 and are forced to leave mid nineteen hundreds. These remarkable devout Christians left their church to follow a dream of living in the Holy Land. They were Palestine's and Israel's first pioneers -- known as the Templers.

During the thirties, the Templers were pressured to embrace and form a Nazi party; as a result their dreams of building a new life in Palestine were shattered by a secret exchange between Germany and Britain. The Nazi party set free a number of Jews from concentration camps and in exchange Britain, who controlled Palestine at the time, sent the Templers back to Germany. Despite the fact that only a third of Templers joined the Nazi Party, all of them were forced to leave their new homeland.

The movie includes first-hand interviews with Templers who speak frankly about their past and with Israelis who acknowledge the Templers accomplishments and contributions to the development of what is now Israel.

David Golan, a former director at Universal Studios with over fifteen years of experience, filmed and directed "Shadows In Palestine."
