Through our content, ranging from full-length feature films to immersive experiences and award-winning digital series featuring mega-influencers, BZ has the unique ability to reach a brand new generation — hundreds of millions of young people — with the most compelling storytelling about Israel and the Jewish people.In a world of rising antisemitism and imperiled support for Israel among younger cohorts, many proponents are focused on either debating the Jewish world’s worst opponents, or preaching to the converted. The former will never be convinced, while the latter already have been. But the vast majority of young people across the globe neither hate Israel and the Jewish people nor love them.
