In 2013, Edward Snowden, an IT subcontractor working for the American Signal’s intelligence agency, the NSA, travelled to Hong Kong in order to leak thousands of classified US documents on domestic data collection to a group of journalists. Five years later, this film assesses Snowden’s journey, which ended in Moscow, where he still lives today. The US government claims that Snowden took as many as 1.5 million classified files. Where did they end up? Was Snowden acting alone? What damage did he do to Western security? To what degree did the material leaked by Snowden reveal mass surveillance by the NSA? What impact did his revelations have on cyber security? Is Snowden a whistleblower, or a spy?

  ‘Jerusalem’ takes audiences on an inspiring and eye-opening tour of one of the world’s oldest and most enigmatic cities. Destroyed and rebuilt countless times over 5,000 years, Jerusalem’s enduring appeal remains a mystery. What made it so important to so many different cultures? How did it become the centre of the world for three major religions? Why does it still matter to us? Jerusalem attempts to answer these questions by following three young Jerusalemites and their families – Jewish, Christian and Muslim. Through their eyes, audiences will learn what it means to call Jerusalem home, and experience celebrations and events that mark the high points of a year in the life of the city.
