    Israel
    1h 
    Original language: Hebrew

    King David, the famed sovereign, united all tribes of Israel into one kingdom. However, a growing number of scholars now believe that the biblical story about this kingdom is no more than a fable. Typical of the Holy Land, this argument has come to involve politics, religion, and many emotions... The film sets out on a journey in search of the of David's Kingdom. Where famed biblical battles were once held, archeologists now vie for prestige and honor, left-wing and right-wing proponents wage ideological battles, and Palestinians and Jews fight for the land and for a place in history.
