Exclusive: Trailer has dropped for Unsilenced, the latest Israeli drama picked up by Fauda and Shtisel producer Yes Studios.
Inspired by the novel The Confidante by Odelia Karmon, Unsilenced is a six-part series about sexual violence set in the pre-#MeToo era and shows the lengths to which an influential perpetrator, in this case a President – and his allies – will go to silence victims, protect themselves and keep their crimes out of the public eye, and how women bound by experience can come together to seek justice.
In Unsilenced, a recently elected President continually forces himself upon a new member of his team – a bright and ambitious young woman from a humble background. Desperate to keep her job, she asks the President’s chief of staff for help, but he shows his complicity with the situation by first looking the other way and then, as things escalate, by engineering a...

Yes Studios, the Israeli producer and distributor behind “Fauda” and “Shtisel,” has boarded “Unsilenced,” a six-part series about sexual violence which is inspired by Odelia Carmon’s novel “The Confidante.”
The multi-layered series stars Yaakov Zada Daniel (“Fauda”), Avraham Shalom Levi (“Shtisel”), Nelly Mira Rubin (“Fire Dance”), Dana Meinrath and Irit Nathan Benedek.
Loosely inspired by actual events, “Unsilenced” is set pre-#MeToo, in the early 2000’s, when powerful men could readily mask and perpetuate abhorrent behaviors with the help of people they installed around themselves.

"Breaking Bad" didn't become a cultural phenomenon overnight -- its fanbase grew dramatically as people discovered it on their own. The scant ratings it had received for its premiere had exploded to 10 million for its finale. The show was addictive and propulsive, amplifying its grim dramatics with innovative photography and narrative time bombs. Mundane moments in the lives of the show's characters could turn to suspense on a dime, with violence emerging suddenly on the lovingly captured New Mexico horizons.

Falun Gong is a new religion movement that originated in the early 90s China during the boom of “qigong” spiritual practices. It declares itself as a non-violent movement with an emphasis on compassion. Its practice consists of meditative exercise sessions and it combines teachings from Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism with some minor influences of Christianity and Islam. Not all the messages the movement transmits are beyond any doubt (its disapproval of homosexuality and racial or ethnic mixing are especially questionable), and it recently allied itself with various far right organizations and media outlets in the US, which does not shed a nice light on it. Nevertheless, the movement is best known as a victim of the violent crackdown conducted by the Chinese communist government in 1999 in which those who practiced Falun Gong were imprisoned, tortured and even executed.
