Rabin, the Last Day

Directed by Amos Gitai2h 33m2015

Itzhak Rabin's murder ended all efforts of peace, and with him the whole left wing of Israel died. The movie shows the last of his days as prime minister, and what led to his murder.

Our read: Rabin, the Last Day (2015) reads as a heavy, measured, grounded drama · history · assassination entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
