NEWS AND REVIEWS
Maariv
"The criminal division of the Jerusalem District Attorney’s Office opened its doors for the first time and allowed cameras into its staff's rooms during their most internal deliberations concerning dramatic cases, and the result is nothing short of superb."
TVbee, mako
"The documentary series exposes the innermost chambers of the State Attorney’s Office for the first time. Thanks to wonderful television work, it might also succeed in lowering the emotional temperature during the next public storm."
"A cruel dilemma, and definitely not the only one that prosecutors have to deal with in the course of their work. Brodsky's wonderful work does not spare them from it, but it will at least slightly lower the emotional temperature in the next storm."
