  • Basato su: Panther in the Basement

The Little Traitor is an independent family drama film written and directed by Lynn Roth. Based on the novel Panther in the Basement by author, Amos Oz, the movie takes place in British Mandatory Palestine in 1947, just a few months before Israel becomes a state.

Production

The Little Traitor was a co-production between Evanstone films (Israel) and Panther Productions (US). What appealed the most to writer/director Lynn Roth was sharing the story of a, “boy (who) finds himself caught between his hatred of "the British"—whom he dreams of destroying—and his growing affection for a member of the detested enemy.”

On the third day of production, while filming in Jerusalem, war broke out between Israel and Lebanon. Director Roth was afraid that after years of painstakingly putting together this film, it would all crumble in an afternoon, but the Israeli cast and crew insisted that the production go on.
