Films by Pierre Rehov
From the River to the Sea
Best Short Film, Liberty Film Festival
According to most Palestinians, "Israeli Occupation" means Tel Aviv, Ber Sheva and Haifa, and for their leaders, Palestine should be built "From the River to the Sea". Meaning, should replace Israel, from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea.
In this disturbing film, "From the River to the Sea", a revised version of "Hostages of Hatred" acclaimed director Pierre Rehov sets out to tell us the real story of those men, women and children, who have been shamefully used as mere pawns for over 50 years, by Arab leaders at first, by Palestinian leaders later on and until this very day but also by the United Nations - body that was specially created to supposedly take care of them: the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, UNWRA.

First Comes Saturday Then Comes Sunday
Why has there been a great-and little reported-Christian exodus from the Middle East, with some two million fleeing in the past 20 years alone? This Christian exodus is a result of many factors, but perhaps most significantly, the religious persecution these Christians encounter from their Muslim neighbors. "First Comes Saturday Then Comes Sunday" is a well known sentence in the Middle East meaning: "First we take care of the Jews (who pray on Saturday) then we will take care of Christians, the "Sunday people."

The Path to Darkness
Billions have been invested by Saudi Arabia in U.S. universities in the last years. At the same time, our western values have been eroded by moral relativism. This leads an entire generation to believe in new mythologies such as: a genocide is perpetrated against Palestinians; Suicide Killers are kamikazes, or freedom fighters; Cho, Eric and Dylan, the murderers of Virginia Tech and Columbine are a typical product of our repressive society; the U.S. army is an occupation force in Iraq, and many other relativist revisions of history, leading to the path to darkness. Following the acclaimed "Suicide Killers", "The Path to Darkness" will take you on a journey deeper into the mind of terrorists, while debunking the dangerous mythologies propagated among our new generations.

The Road to Jenin
This film starts with difficult images of the Netanya bombing on Passover evening and with an account by a victim who lost her husband.
Operation Defensive Shield
, launched by Israel, is the direct consequence of this terrorist act.
Active images follow: Tsahal tanks go into the camp, dynamiting terrorist suspect houses, fighting in the streets. The fighting was particularly violent in Jenin. Aircraft and helicopters could have bombed the camp, but the army did not do so in order to avoid harming civilians - a reservists explains. Narrow streets meant the tanks could not enter the camp and twenty three Israeli soldiers were killed.
The third part of the film is, without doubt, the most captivating: Rehov went to Jenin with a Palestinian team and managed to reveal the "lies" of many of the "witnesses to the massacre" he interviewed. A shocking document!!

Silent Exodus
They were more than a million Jews. Between 1946 and 1974, this million is the number of forgotten fugitives, expelled from the Arab world, and whom history would like to forget, while the victims themselves have hidden their fate under a veil of modesty. The Jews have been living in Arabic lands for thousands of years and seemed to accept their fate forever, some even considering their survival as a miracle. But 1948, the beginning of their exodus, was also the birth of the State of Israel.
