After Shtisel and Faudra a very disappointing first episode The period between the end of the Ottoman Empire and the birth of the State of Israel is very significant in the history of the Middle East. This programme even with its Rom-com.connections has an opportunity of explaining how the apparent insoluble problems between Jews and Arabs came about. Instead we are given a poorly written poorly produced series which seems to be made on a very low budget . What an opportunity lost.
