Superjews

[2] On Thursday, 2 January 2014 the film premiered on national television, when it was broadcast by NTR on channel Nederland 3.

[3] In the 2013 documentary "Superjews" director Nirit Peled sheds light on the supporters of the Dutch association football club AFC Ajax, who have often referred to themselves as super Jews.

[5] The film is built around personal, mostly intimate and often revealing interviews, in which Peled is also in front of the camera amongst recordings from the Ajax home-stadium, the Amsterdam ArenA, archival footage from Ajax-supporters from before the Second World War, and unique footage of Ajax supporters visiting Israel in attendance of an away match against Maccabi Tel Aviv.

[6] In the documentary Nirit speaks with the likes of Jeroen and Diana, hardcore Ajax-supporters, Ronald, one of the founders of F-side and creator of the fanzine De Davidster (The Star of David); longtime Ajax-archivist Mr. Schoevaart, former Ajax-chairman Uri Coronel; 11-year-old Ajax-fan Jodi and his single mother; Mrs. Visser, Holocaust survivor and resident of the Jewish retirement home Beth Shalom in Buitenveldert; Shalo Muller, former Jewish masseuse of Ajax; and Avi the owner of CaféTraffic.

As an obvious football outsider Peled offers a very personal view into the game, the lore of Ajax and its relation to Judaism.
