Holy Redemption

In the aftermath of October 7, as Gaza faces devastation, a quieter but equally relentless war unfolds in the shadows—deep within the occupied West Bank. The TRT World Investigative team embarks on a daring journey into this overlooked front, uncovering a harrowing reality under the shadow of radical Jewish settlers.

Holy Redemption takes viewers to the heart of occupied Palestine, to the desolate Metzad Hill between Hebron and Bethlehem—a forbidden zone where filming and recording are prohibited. Here, illegal outposts rise, built by the “Hilltop Youth,” a group of radical settler youth driven by a messianic vision of “Greater Israel.” They believe these lands are divinely promised and must be seized—by any means necessary.

At the center of the movement is one of its most controversial figures: Daniella Weis. A settler leader who transforms the Torah into a political manifesto, Weis is both the face and the firestarter of this ideological crusade.

The documentary exposes the unlawful settlements, the military training settlers receive from the Israeli army, the indirect support they gain from state institutions, and the vast political and financial networks that sustain them. Through the testimonies of Israeli human rights activists, former IDF soldiers, and Knesset members, the film reveals how Palestinians are systematically displaced, their villages encircled, and their lands incrementally stolen.

Through powerful visuals, gripping field moments, and immersive storytelling, Holy Redemption does more than inform—it confronts the viewer with the moral urgency of a slow-burning injustice still unfolding today.
