This remarkable film, made by the grandson of a prominent scholar killed in the Lod Airport Massacre, is a reminder of the fragility of Israeli society under terrorist threat. It is also an heartfelt testimony to the strength of young love.

Twenty-four year old Katzir's search for a girlfriend, recorded with a video camera, is a probing portrait of Israel under siege in the days leading to the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin. As Dan begins his romantic hunt, Israelis engage in political strife and try to deal with their fears for their children after each new terrorist outrage.
