2007. 93 minutes.
Israel, in Hebrew with subtitles.

Centering on the legendary capture of a fictional Nazi war criminal by a trio of Mossad agents, this is the original, intense Israeli psychological thriller that the current 2011 English-language remake is based upon. With atmospheric visuals, an angst-ridden solo performance by famed Israeli diva Gila Almagor, and a tensely beautiful music score.
