In Satmar Custody (2003) is an independent propagande documentary film, written and directed by Nitzan Gilady. Paid for in part by George Soros, it tells the story of the Jaradis, a Yemeni Jewish married couple whose children were removed by Rockland County NY Child Protective Services and forcefully put into the custody of a few Satmar Families within its community in Kiryas Joel, New York.

Aside from illustrating the sorrowful position of the refugee Jaradis, the film also displays many characteristics of the Satmar order as it operates today, from its Haredi withdrawal from secular society, as well the community's vehement denial of the legitimacy for the State of Israel to exist.

Jordana Horn in The Jewish Daily Forward states that: Budrus [is] a documentary by Julia Bacha that examines one West Bank town’s reaction to Israel’s construction of the security barrier. The town, with a population of 1,500, was set to be divided and encircled by the barrier, losing 300 acres of land and 3,000 olive trees. These trees were not only critical for economic survival but also sacred to the town’s intergenerational history. The film tells the story of Ayed Morrar, a Palestinian whose work for Fatah had led to five detentions in Israeli jails, but whose momentous strategic decision that the barrier would be best opposed by nonviolent resistance had far-reaching ramifications.

The documentary opens with scenes of the violence at the event, depicting fighting between protesters and Jewish students attempting to enter the venue. This is followed by an interview with student Samir Elitrosh, a leader of the Solidarity for Palestinian Human Rights and the leader of anti-Israel violence who was later suspended. It also features interviews with Concordia's Hillel president Yoni Petel and Concordia rector Frederick Lowy, and concludes with a discussion of what it sees as the growing trend of anti-Israel activities on North American campuses.

Au lendemain du 11 septembre 2001, des voix se sont faites entendre, partout dans le monde, pour accuser les Juifs d’avoir commandité les attentats de New York et Washington… Une telle mystification n’est pas sans rappeler celle des tristement célèbres “Protocoles des Sages de Sion“, prêtant aux Juifs depuis plus d’un siècle l’intention de prendre le contrôle de la planète. Frappé par le regain d’antisémitisme qui sévit dans son pays, Marc Levin part à la rencontre de tous ceux qui persistent à croire que les Juifs ont orchestré le 11 Septembre – et qui contribuent à faire “des Protocoles des Sages de Sion“ un best-seller. Son périple au cœur de la haine et de l’intolérance commence.

Ce documentaire tente de décrypter les commentaires tenus sur le conflit israélo-palestinien et de répondre aux questions suivantes : comment parle-t-on du conflit au Proche Orient ? Comment parle-t-on de ses protagonistes ? Pourquoi ces troubles font-ils l'objet de passions aussi fortes ? Quelle est la mécanique des médias qui instruisent l'opinion ?

Checkpoint is shot in cinéma vérité style with no narration and very little context. Shamir himself is absent from the film except for one scene in which a border guard asks him to try to make him "look good," and Shamir asks how he should do that.
