Documentary
This documentary, based on Mosab Hassan Yousef's memoir, Son of Hamas, relates the story of Yousef's collaboration with the Shin Bet over a 10-year period. As the son of a Hamas leader, he was given the code name "the green prince."
Juxtaposing Yousef's story with that of his Shin Bet handler, Gonen Ben Yitzhak, compels the audience to examine the decisions each man made, the dangers resulting from those decisions, and their psychological effect. It is the story of two adversaries embroiled in the clash of history, spy and spymaster, each of whom ultimately places his trust in the other.
