JERUSALEM, May 16, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ -- Israel Inside: How a Small Nation Makes a Big Difference is inspiring tens of thousands to change the way the world views Israel. Since March, the film has played on PBS stations in major cities, has been screened in six out of seven continents, and is receiving incredible international attention. As a result of the overwhelming demand to watch and share the film, the producers have agreed to make Israel Inside available for free online for a limited time at www.IsraelInsideTheMovie.com.  

Israel Inside: How a Small Nation Makes a Big Difference, is a 55-minute documentary produced by JerusalemOnlineU.com. According to the producer, Raphael Shore, his motivation for this campaign is "an invitation to share the Israel experience and miracle firsthand."

The film is narrated by New York Times Bestselling Author and former Harvard lecturer Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar, who taught Harvard's most popular course, "Positive Psychology." "We have a lot to celebrate as a nation," Ben-Shahar says. "The film was made to showcase how the people of Israel are utilizing 2,000 years of values and wisdom."

Ben-Shahar reveals how the Israeli family and strong community responsibility not only lead to a charitable society, but to a society that shares responsibility with each other. Emphasizing these core character strengths from a young age, Israelis have been able to turn a desert into a "Land flowing with Milk and Honey" -- flourishing amidst complex political and security challenges.

Ben-Shahar is joined on-screen by leading Jewish and Israeli leaders, entrepreneurs, businessmen and political figures, including: Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz, Great Britain's Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, Historian Sir Martin Gilbert, Better Place's Shai Agassi, and venture capitalist Jonathan Medved.

For 64 years, the modern state of Israel has thrived and continues to stand strong in being a beacon of light and inspiration for its global community.

Israel Inside: How a Small Nation Makes a Big Difference (www.israelinsidethemovie.com) is a new feature-length documentary that explores the positive characteristics of Israeli society. This insightful and uplifting documentary sidesteps the usual conversation of politics, conflict and violence, and tells the story of the Israeli people -- whose resilience has propelled Israel to the forefront of world innovation and progress.
