Program Note
October 6, 1973 is a special day. It′s Yom Kippur in Israel and all is quiet. Then, war breaks out. Weinraud and his friend Ruso drive with all speed into the Golan Heights looking for the unit in which they did their military service. After searching for it in vain, they decide, in the midst of this chaotic atmosphere, to join an Air Force first-aid team. They are set with the task of evacuating the wounded and the dead. At the air base and on their missions, these men develop intimate relationships. On Weinraud′s birthday, they are sent into Syrian territory. Their helicopter is hit by a missile, killing one of the men instantly. The pilot manages to get them back to Israel, though he has to crash land, wounding most of the team. Following Weinraud after this terrible accident, the audience witnesses his difficult return to the world of the living, from his stay at Safed hospital to his girlfriend′s house.
