 - Promise, The A gripping, political thriller that examines the origins of the Middle East conflict in events that took place under British rule sixty years ago. From the producers of the Emmy-nominated dramas ENDGAME and THE HAMBURG CELL, comes THE PROMISE, a new political thriller set in contemporary Israel and British Occupied Palestine in the aftermath of the Second World War. Told in two time frames, the contemporary story focuses on ERIN; an impressionable, somewhat na ve and, on the surface, not entirely sympathetic 18 year old British girl on her gap year. About to depart to spend the summer with her best friend ELIZA, who has joint British/Israeli nationality, ERIN is first dragged by her mother to visit her grandfather LEN, who lies dying in hospital. ERIN is not close to him and remains distant and unmoved as he lies silently in a coma. But it is when ERIN discovers LEN'S diary, which she begins to read en route to Israel, that her grandfather's extraordinary past begins to unfold.
