Synopsis:

This captivating coming of age story of a precocious young Israeli boy, Proffy, and his inconceivable friendship with British Sergeant Dunlop (Alfred Molina), takes place in Palestine in 1947. Based on the best-selling novel by Amos Oz, the film parallels the maturation of the impressionable young boy with Israel, as it transitions into statehood, and revolves around the poignant but problematic alliance of the boy and the sergeant, whose mutual friendship is judged harshly. Writer Director Lynn Roth, seamlessly blends the touching tale of friendship, trust and betrayal, against the larger backdrop of the last days of British occupation of Palestine.

British Palestine, 1947: In just a few short months, Israel will achieve independent statehood. Proffy Liebowitz is a 12-year-old militant who wants nothing more than to see the imperialist forces pack their bags and head for the hills, but when Proffy breaks curfew one night he has an experience that will forever change his outlook on life. Busted while roaming the streets by an amiable British soldier, Proffy is taken aback to find himself entering into a friendly conversation with a man he would have once sworn off as his mortal enemy.
