This film is intense, timely and provocative. For me it turned everything I thought I knew on its head. It is based on the book Son of Hamas, written by Mosab Hassan Yousef in 2007 whose father, Sheihk Hassan Yousef was a co-founder and leader of Hamas. He described it as the “family business”

8. The Green Prince Reviews - Metacritic
The Israel-Palestine conflict is reduced to a crystalline, though still complicated, essence in Nadav Schirman's alternately tedious and engrossing documentary.
As a defiant teenager growing up in Palestine, Mosab Hassan Yousef’s fervor against Israel was unquestionable, ultimately landing him in prison. Shaken by Hamas’s brutality within the prison’s walls and a growing disgust for their methods, particularly suicide bombing, he had an unexpected change of heart and began to see Hamas as more of a problem than a solution. Recruited by the Shin Bet (Israel’s internal security agency) and given the code name "Green Prince," he spied on the Hamas elite for over a decade, constantly risking exposure and certain death while grappling with the perception that he had betrayed his own family and people. Along the way, what started as a cautious alliance between Mosab and his Shin Bet handler Gonen Ben Yitzhak grew into an enduring loyalty that no one could have predicted. [Music Box Films]
