Barry Friedman

Barry Friedman is the founder of Hollyveld Entertainment, where he has spearheaded over two decades of broadcast, feature, and commercial storytelling across South Africa and international platforms.

Jesse Gilbert

Jesse Gilbert wrote White Khan, a book and screenplay with limited-series potential about Jewish life in 1920s Mongolia. He pairs twenty years of copywriting and brand strategy with screenwriting to develop ISREEL’s original stories. The name itself is his: he devised the wordplay Isreel — Israel meets reel — over coffee in Tel Aviv with Barry. He is now based out of Los Angeles.

Current Slate

White Khan

The true story of Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg and Israel-Eli Zanzer — a flagship feature film with limited-series potential, set across Siberia and 1921 Mongolia, from the same team.

White Khan poster: Baron Roman von Ungern-Sternberg and Israel-Eli Zanzer

Russia, 1918. A mystic cavalry officer rides east to restore an empire, convinced he is the vessel of an ancient prophecy. In his path stands Israel-Eli Zanzer, the mining engineer holding Urga's Jewish trading community together as the Romanov gold vanishes into the steppe.
