Emmy-award winning filmmaker Andrew Goldberg explores its infectious behavior in his film Viral: Antisemitism in Four Mutations, premiering Tuesday, May 26, at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings).
Written, produced and directed by Goldberg, the 90-minute documentary which had a short theatrical release earlier this year including in the Tampa Bay area visits four countries to speak firsthand with victims, witnesses and anti-Semites.
