A young Jewish woman’s relationship with a British policeman stationed in British Mandatory Palestine has lasting consequences for the region in this historical thriller based on real events.
On the eve of the Second World War, two British officials are tasked with eradicating terrorism in the Arab and Jewish communities in Tel Aviv. The peace is shattered when one of them is implicated in the death of Zionist hero Avraham Stern. From prolific auteur Michael Winterbottom (The Trip, A Mighty Heart), this propulsively paced thriller is also an insightful portrait into the seeds of today’s conflicts and the legacy of British colonialism.
