I didn't know I see a movie that is based on the people of Nitzanim interviews. Search Google for Mira Ben Ari and the Battle of Nitzanim. It is pretty much accurate.

So first in general I love Avi neshers works . He has some gems . This is one of them. It's a great film. There's one major issue . Gratuitous nudity . To which there's no need ..... I don't understand why this was added to film. It adds nothing and makes it unable to be watched by kids and religus . This could be shown in school if not for that or to children . Due to that wouldnt.... It's a powerful movie . I don't agree with all the points made but I think Avi is fair and trust to be neutral. Hes done this in the past . Which is rare as most Israeli media is super left wing . He shows the good , bad and ugly . Would give 10/10 if not for unnecessary nudity ....

I almost never watch foreign language films but was enticed by the appeal to actual events, and I actually enjoyed those aspects of the film. The acting was fairly good and the humorous parts were plausible. What I disliked was the portrayal of the Egyptian film Director. It's hard for me to digest a dyed-in-the-wool antagonist being 'haunted' by the woman's smile. The film reminded me of the pro-war films during the post-WW2 and Vietnam eras: "We" are good and 'the Other' is evil/incompetent'.

This film happened to be well done, with some human interest threads.

As the title suggests I think this is Nesher's best movie to date and he has some good ones in the past.

A great time to be had watching this film, would recommend it to anyone who's interested.

Since I know the area and some of the stories from Israel's independence war, it was interesting to see our history come to life. The storyline is good and so are the actors but some of the scenes, specifically some of the battle scenes, seem amateurish, but maybe it's because that's how untrained soldiers and new immigrants fought at the time. Trying to bring the story from both sides of the conflict is interesting, humanizing the other side. Worth watching!
