Harvey Keitel, Lior Ashkenazi (Late Marriage, Foxtrot) and Mark Ivanir (Homeland) lead Esau, a limited series based on the best-selling book from famed Israeli author Meir Shalev.

Esau (Ashkenazi), a 40-year-old writer, returns to his family home after decades of living in the United States to face the brother who stole both his love and livelihood. His return awakens old passions, explosive secrets, and connects the state of his family today to its roots which were entangled with the establishment of early Jewish settlement in the land of Israel. Like many of writer Meir Shalev's beloved tales, Esau is a modern twist on the biblical story of Jacob and Esau — bridging the gap between past and present like no other.
