What
happens when a "student" infiltrates into the highest levels of the
Israeli political lobby in the United States? Documentary series The
Lobby USA was created in 2016, when aspiring journalist James Kleinfeld
spent almost six months in the heart of the Israel lobby in Washington,
D.C., which, through financial, political, and media resources, shape
the long-term positive image of Israel and its policies in the eyes of
the American public. The film reveals not only manipulative strategies
and techniques of communication, but also the ways in which the lobby
seeks to purposefully discredit individuals and groups involved in the
pro-Palestinian solidarity movement.
The
film is based on a four-part investigative reporting series of Al
Jazeera. It will be presented to the Czech audience in the format
"supercut" format: 104 minutes in length. The screening will be followed
by a discussion with the main protagonist of the documentary, James
Kleinfeld, moderated by Czech journalist David Scharf (Voxpot).
