Avraham Kushnir Drama, 105 min, Israël

V.O. Hebrew, S.T. English

If the Iranians “push the button” their missiles can hit anywhere in Israel in an hour and a half. Operation Sunflower is a dramatic interpretation of the creation of Israel’s nuclear weapon program.

On his return from a trip to a concentration camp, Ben Gurion gives an order to develop Israel’s nuclear option – as an insurance policy for the remainder of the Jewish people. High quality fascinating period drama reveals this monumental story set in Jerusalem and Paris during the ‘50s and ‘60s.
