Five soldiers are trapped in an endless war. They keep coming back to the starting point where they are asked to go into battle to protect their land, and each time the level of sacrifice demanded of them rises. From this nightmarish trap a hero emerges – Mountain – whose character encompasses the promise of decisive victory and salvation. Mountain’s character is shaped as a lyrical reflection of the former Israeli prime minister and retired general Ariel Sharon, and the plot is inspired by battles that the Israeli public finds controversial: the retaliation attacks of the 1950s, the Yom Kippur War, and the Second Lebanon War. |
