This award-winning futuristic action movie takes place in Tel Aviv after the collapse of government and law and order in the country. The ruins of the city serve as the backdrop to clashes between political street gangs. The military regime; left quite helpless in the face of this unchecked crime; sets up special squads of police officers with the object of stamping out and liquidating these revolutionary factions. The film is an account of Dror's last day in Israel. He is an outstanding cop who is scheduled to leave the country that very night. Dror's superior; Friedman (Assi Hanegbi); forces him to go out on one last liquidation assignment - to get Schneider (Isaac Florentine); the toughest and most dangerous criminal in the city; formerly a top cop and former best friend of Dror's. The movie seeks to combine all elements of a thrilling action flick; a spaghetti western; and a futuristic action movie; using all the cliches and mannerisms which are so typical of all these. The director; Isaac Florentine; combines his two passions: martial arts and film making. The film went on to be the nomination from Israel to the Academy Awards. It is in Hebrew but with English subtitles.
