Programme Overview

Description

In the summer of 2014, three Jewish teenagers are kidnapped and murdered by Hamas terrorists. Israel is shocked, shaken, and furious. Two days later, the burned body of a Palestinian teenager from East Jerusalem is found in a forest on the western outskirts of the city.

In the ensuing days, Simon - an agent from the internal terror division of the Shin Bet, investigates the murder, while the parents of the slain teenager begin their long and anguished journey toward justice and consolation.

The series, based on the true events which led to the outbreak of war in Gaza, follows the investigation of Mohammed Abu Khdeir’s murder. It tells the story of all those involved, Jews and Arabs alike, whose lives were forever changed by these events.

Our Boys premiered to rave reviews on HBO channels across North America, Latin America, Europe and has also been picked up in France (Canal+), Belgium (BeTV), Australia (SBS) and by all four major platforms in Israel.
