★ 8.02002
MovieDocumentary
Uri Avnery is the man who Israelis have loved to hate for over 50 years. For the first time the cinema gets to grip with the complex, contradictory and controversial figure of "the last Mohican of the radical left", the veteran peace campaigner and prominent journalist. It is a depiction of an uncompromising perpetual warrior who has paid a high personal price for his total loyalty to his beliefs. The film shuttles between past and present, between Avnery's public persona and the psychology of his inner world. It combines archive footage with present-day scenes to produce a well-rounded portrait, while simultaneously examining the very question it has set out to answer: how does one create a cinematic portrait?
