The Real Fauda
2018 film by Oren Rosenfeld
The Real Fauda is a 2018 BBC documentary film that explores the background reality of the TV Series Fauda ('Chaos') to find the source of the Israeli TV thriller's popularity in Arab countries. The documentary was filmed with exclusive behind the scenes access to season 2 of Fauda, and for the first time, real access to the group that the hit series is based on.
Description
For the first time, and in light of the popularity of Fauda, Oren Rosenfeld and Jane Corbin were granted exclusive access to the clandestine operatives and organization of the Yamas. The documentary delves into the secretive world of the real life operatives, and how closely the show mirrors the reality.
The underlying theme is how the Arab-Israeli conflict plays out in Fauda and the realities of the situation in the region.
The documentary includes interviews with Lior Raz the actor who plays Doron in Fauda and Laetitia Eido who plays Dr. Shirin El Abed.

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “The Real Fauda”, the useful work is to connect “2018 film by Oren Rosenfeld” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q47500772. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2018.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
