# Israeli films and television recognized abroad

*Israeli screen works have earned major awards, Academy Award nominations and international adaptations. Explore series exports, films, documentaries, performers and stories rooted in diverse communities.*

Israeli screen stories reach international audiences through format adaptations, streaming releases, film festivals and awards. [Israeli TV formats abroad](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/how-hollywood-adapts-acclaimed-israeli-television-formats) covers BeTipul and Hatufim. [Fauda and Tehran](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/israel-s-geopolitical-thrillers-fauda-and-tehran-go-global) traveled as Israeli productions, rather than as American remakes.

Israeli films have earned Academy Award nominations and international festival prizes. See [the films nominated by the Academy](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/israel-s-golden-era-of-academy-award-nominated-cinema), and [Israeli documentaries at international festivals](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/award-winning-israeli-documentaries-and-international-acclaim). The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences named *Tehran* the 2021 Drama Series winner; its [official announcement](https://www.iemmys.tv/2021-international-emmy-awards-winners-announced/) identifies the program and award.

Israeli works also bring specific community experiences to the screen. [Films about Arab, Mizrahi and Ethiopian Jewish experiences](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/diverse-voices-in-award-winning-israeli-cinema) names works and festival honors. For screen portrayals of Orthodox Jewish life and Israeli performers working abroad, see [Shtisel and Srugim](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/shtisel-and-srugim-demystifying-orthodox-culture-on-screen) and [Israeli actors and filmmakers in Hollywood](https://hasbara.co.il/resources/israeli-cinema-and-television-international-recognition/the-global-rise-of-israeli-talent-in-hollywood).
