I would not have chosen to see an Israeli Film but we found ourselves in the position of having two tickets left for the Festival of Perth film season and this was the last film. However, it turned out to be possibly the best film of the season. The film opens with a scene on a pleasure boat on the Bosporus; the channel leading to the Black Sea. A man in sunglasses in eyeing a couple with a young child. The man in sunglasses goes to the toilet and loan a syringe with some pink fluid. In the next scene the couple with the child has disembarked followed by the man in sunglasses who brushes past the husband, apologises, and makes for a waiting car. Meanwhile the husband rolls over stone dead. He was a Palestinian and he has been assassinated by an Israeli Mossad agent by a lethal injection. The Mossad agent returns home to find his wife has committed suicide. In the next scene a young German tourist has arrived at Tel Aviv. He is met by his tour guide; our same Mossad agent. The German boy has come to Israeli to visit his sister who is working on a kibbutz and to persuade her to return to Germany with him for a family reunion coinciding with their father’s 70th birthday. Now, Mossad has worked out that the boy’s grandfather is a Nazi war criminal who has eluded them for many years. The Mossad agent has been assigned to try to find out where the grandfather is hiding. During the tour, several interesting conversations ensue. The Mossad agent asks the German what he thinks of the holocaust. The German replies that he does not think of it and neither does anyone of his generation. It was simply nothing to do with his generation. There was another interesting conversation on circumcision. The gist of the conversation was that while all Jews are circumcised Germans are almost never circumcised but the English and French are both circumcised and not circumcised. In a biography I read recently the writer had become circumcised later in life. He was having some problems. The foreskin should be able to retract for cleanliness (and for other purposes). If it cannot, it will cause pain. The German boy is a homosexual and it did not take him long to latch onto an Arab boy; much to the chagrin of the Mossad agent. Eventually, the tour is over but the German boy has failed to persuade his sister to return for the family reunion. The German boy, in his charming innocence, invites the Mossad agent, if he visits Germany, to look him up. Presently the Mossad agent arrives on the doorstep, in Germany, and is invited to stay for the family reunion. The family reunion takes place, speeches are made, and the surprise guest appears. He is none other than the Nazi grandfather come out of hiding. The boy’s mother remarks to her friend that for all she knew, her son’s Israeli friend could be a Mossad agent. Now we come to the exciting part. which I have edited out. If you want to know what happened, and have not already seen, you will have to see the film.
