In his documentary "The Main Suspect", film director Yaky Yosha attempted to explore the circumstances which lead to the deaths of thirteen Israeli Arabs during the October 2000 events which triggered the current Intifada.
Israel, October 1 2000. Intifiada (revolt) Al-Aqsa has begun. For the first time Israeli-Arab citizens actively participate. During the following three days, 13 Arabs are killed. The government appoints an investigation committee, but the people have already chosen the main suspect: the Galilee Chief of Police, Major Alik Ron.
"The Main Suspect" is a fascinating portrait of a public servant accused by the people as its enemy.
"The Main Suspect" participated at IDFA (International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam)
