Drama
Original title: LaLehet Al HaMayim
Mostly in English with subtitles for the Hebrew and German dialog
BACKGROUND
The State of Israel, like most countries, operates two security services: Shin Bet for internal security matters and the Mossad for foreign operations.
PRINCIPAL CAST MEMBERS
Lior Ashkenazi: Eyal, a Mossad agent and master assassin
Gideon Shemer: his boss Menachem
Carolina Peters: Pia Himmelman who lives and works in an Israeli Kibbutz
Knut Berger: her brother Alex, a Berlin teacher of immigrant children
REVIEW
A very believable story with wonderful acting. Unlike most “thrillers”, there is the absence of big bomb explosions we have come to expect from Hollywood. Interwoven with the main story are a number of others, which tend to give it a real-world feel about it.
CLASSIFICATION
for some language including sexual references, and for brief nudity.P.S.
Any armchair traveller will be enraptured with locations like Istanbul, Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, and Berlin.
