Having refused, for moral and political reasons, to serve in the '82 Lebanon war, initiated by minister of defense Arik Sharon, Mograbi has a ,personal' attitude towards him. In the making of the film, he comes to see Sharon in a different light than expected. To his surprise he finds Sharon extremely likeable. In the course of the campaign chase Mograbi sets aside his leftist political beliefs, gets surprisingly close to Sharon, only to find himself, at the end, in a bizarre scene, dancing in a right wing rally with orthodox reliieous jews and singing in support of Netanyahu.

Mograbi's wife Tammi is always there to support him in the beginning, warn him along the way when things go in undesirable directions and eventually leave him when he thinks he has lost his political and moral senses.

In this fictitious-documentary Mograbi tells the story of the making of the film about Arik Sharon, threaded with his dreams about Sharon and dialogues with his wife. But the true story told is of the impossible close encounter between left and right in present-day Israel.
