Synopsis

OCTOBER 8 offers a searing look at the eruption of antisemitism on college campuses, social media and in the streets of America starting the day after Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7. The film unpacks this pivotal moment at American universities where Hamas is celebrated as freedom fighters rather than as terrorists.OCTOBER 8 shows how Hamas has strategically infiltrated American culture with their messaging and propaganda, finding unexpected resonance not only among Gen Z but with both students and faculty on elite college campuses. It also examines the normalization of anti-Zionism that has become the modern iteration of antisemitism.Through meticulous investigation, the film exposes how over decades, Hamas created sophisticated networks in America to permeate U.S. institutions, including universities through organizations like Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). Highlighting stunning levels of social engineering, OCTOBER 8 examines the tsunami of online antisemitism, propaganda, and disinformation unleashed by Iran, China and Russia designed to divide American society.
