Description: Beitar Jerusalem are six-time Israeli Premier League champions and one of the best supported teams in Israel, but the club has always been tarnished by their far-right supporters' group, La Familia. Over the years, La Familia have engaged in racist chants and violence, ensuring that Beitar Jerusalem remain the only football club in Israel never to have had any Arab players - but the club's makeup and context is more complex than you might think. In this documentary, HITC Sevens takes a deep dive into the weird world of Beitar Jerusalem, their racist fans, and the political machinations behind the controversial club.
