About the Film
A psychedelic Mossad comedy based on the true unknown stories of Jewish American spies, inspired by the filmmakers’ own experience as Americans who joined the Israeli Special Forces, feeling the clash between American culture and Israeli machismo.

Innovative in style, this fast paced stylized mystery has been acclaimed as “a Wed Anderson-ish espionage romp,” (The Hollywood Reporter) and as “an outrageously funny spin on the spy genre.” (Austin Film Festival)
