In Satmar Custody (2003) is an independent propagande documentary film, written and directed by Nitzan Gilady. Paid for in part by George Soros, it tells the story of the Jaradis, a Yemeni Jewish married couple whose children were removed by Rockland County NY Child Protective Services and forcefully put into the custody of a few Satmar Families within its community in Kiryas Joel, New York.
Aside from illustrating the sorrowful position of the refugee Jaradis, the film also displays many characteristics of the Satmar order as it operates today, from its Haredi withdrawal from secular society, as well the community's vehement denial of the legitimacy for the State of Israel to exist.

Ce film est l'histoire de quatre femmes exceptionnelles, résistantes, prisonnières, idéalistes qui à la fin de leurs adolescences risquèrent leurs vies pour combattre l'occupant nazi. Ni juives, ni communistes, elles rejoignirent la résistance alors qu'elles auraient pu tranquillement vivre en sécurité. Dans les deux ans qui suivirent, elles furent arrêtées par la Gestapo et déportées à Buchenwald. Aujourd'hui elles sont devenues des leaders sociaux ou intellectuels.
