Great documentary about Zionism and Jewish Americans

The documentary started with praising Israel, which I believe to lure Israelis to watch. But the ending is full of twist. Recommended.

[CPH:DOX '24] At one point in the documentary, Simone Zimmerman states that "_when many American politicians are asked about anti-Semitism, they express support for Israel. Israel is currently replacing what it means to be Jewish. These people have decided that support for Israel is more important than defending Judaism."_ Through the experience of two young Jews, the film describes the construction of a Zionist indoctrination that uses educational institutions such as North American universities to spread a unilateral vision closed to debate. But when raising this question, it ends up falling into a one-dimensional point of view, when it refers to historical facts, or when some interviews with people like Abe Foxman, director of the Anti-Defamation League until 2015, seem to reflect that he did not really know the nature of the documentary, offering general answers easily countered. Perhaps it is not the most appropriate thing for a film that denounces the one-way reporting of the Jewish community in the United States to avoid establishing a real debate with interviewees who also offer arguments from the other point of view.
