Avi Mograbi
1997 - Israël - Couleur - 61'
As the 1996 elections approach, director Avi Mograbi sets out to make a documentary about a figure both admired and disliked, a former minister and a legendary army general, Ariel Sharon. Mograbi, who was a conscientious objector to the 1982 Lebanon War, has a very “personal” point of view on Sharon, the mastermind of that war. Nevertheless, while making the film, he seems to begin to see Sharon in a different light. To his surprise, Mograbi discovers that Sharon is warm and friendly. In the presence of the director.
