It was a cold December day in 2006 when 13-year-old Tair Rada was found dead inside a locked toilet stall at her school on the northern tip of Israel. A week later the police arrested Roman Zadorov, a Ukrainian Immigrant who had worked there as a temp and eventually confessed to the murder. But many still believe he is innocent, and have their own theories as to what happened that day. “Shadow of Truth” is a Rashomon-like exploration of this murder mystery, which raises serious questions regarding our justice system and its ability to reach the truth.
In the same vein as the hit Netflix series “Making a Murderer,” “Shadow of Truth” is one of the most popular and critically-acclaimed shows in Israeli history. After premiering in Israel in March 2016, it was acquired for worldwide distribution by Netflix, where it is available to stream now.
The series was created by three young Israeli filmmakers: Yotam Guendelman, Ari Pines, and Mika Timor. Timor and Guendelman also produced the series alongside Ben Giladi through their EGG Films.
Now available to stream on Netflix
