False Flag
Created by Amit Cohen, Maria Feldman, Leora Kamenetzky
A tense, paranoid thriller about ordinary citizens caught in a geopolitical conspiracy, where the line between victim and suspect collapses under state pressure.
The series, loosely based on the true story of the assassination in Dubai of a senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Mabhouh - the co-founder of military wing of the Islamist Palestinian group Hamas on 19 January 2010, revolves around five ordinary Israeli citizens who discover one morning via the media that they are the principal suspects of a high-profile kidnapping and are implicated as culprits in the kidnapping.
