Refreshing Documentary Shines New Light on Israel

'ISRAEL INSIDE' premieres November 29 at 8 PM on South Florida's WPBT2

MIAMI, Nov. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Israel Inside: How a Small Nation Makes a Big Difference,a new feature length documentary that examines the positive characteristics of Israeli society, premieres Tuesday, November 29 at 8:00 PM on WPBT2 in South Florida. The film sidesteps the usual conversation of politics, conflict and violence, and tells the story of the Israeli people - whose resilience has propelled Israel to the forefront of world innovation and progress.

"Despite daily challenges ranging from limited resources to security needs, Israeli creativity and inventiveness help make the world a better place," said Raphael Shore, Producer of Israel Inside. "Israel has made significant advancements in the fields of science, environment, medicine and technology. Even more significantly, it has shared these developments with the rest of the world."

The 55-minute film is hosted by Dr. Tal Ben Shahar who took a difficult decision to give up a unique distinction as Harvard University's most popular lecturer to return to his native-born country, Israel. In the film, Ben Shahar explores the core character strengths - called "actualizers" - that enable Israelis to succeed against incredible odds. Through Ben Shahar's eyes we explore the deep-seated values such as education, family and responsibility to the world, which directly contribute to Israel's accomplishments in the economic, technological and humanitarian spheres.

"None of these actualizers are in and of themselves unique to Israel, but in combination, they are bringing about an almost unparalleled progress, success and contribution to the world," said Ben Shahar. "These actualizers have not only made Israel what it is, they also have the potential to help us all enjoy happier, more successful, more productive lives, and to make the world a better place."

Israel Inside features interviews with leading entrepreneurs, academics, and politicians including President Shimon Peres, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, Sir Martin Gilbert, Prof. Alan Dershowitz, Prof. Jacob Frankel, Tamar Jehuda-Cohen, and Shai Agassi.
