Synopsis

Israel 1973. Six years after the Six Day War, Menashe
is still deeply traumatized by his experiences
as a soldier. He withdraws from society and spends
hours aimlessly driving around in his red pickup.
His young wife Daphna and their 10-year old
son Shlomi suffer under his silence and rejection.
Daphna tries to get through to her husband and
bring him back into the family. When the Yom Kippur War breaks out,
Menashe has to go back into battle - and his life and family threaten
to finally fall apart. A gripping story that goes back to the origins of
medical treatment for a syndrome we now know as post-traumatic
stress disorder and which has become part of the psychological canon.
