About the Film
A civil war, a corrupt dictator and thousands of Ethiopian Jews on the brink of catastrophe.
In 1991, Israeli diplomat, Asher Naim, is sent to Ethiopia to negotiate the release of 15,000 Ethiopian Jews from a country collapsing under civil war. During his mission, Asher and his Ethiopian-Israeli colleagues begin to question if his government is acting out of altruism towards their fellow Jews or is using the issue as part of an elaborate publicity stunt against claims that Zionism is racism.
