Synopsis
editThis film documentary uses the 1967 Six-Day War and its immediate aftermath as its basis.[1] The material primarily presents Israeli sources and perspectives. It has been characterized as an anti-war screed. The film was panned for presenting little footage documenting the war, as well as for conflicting, alternating viewpoints and overall lack of narrative focus.[2]
