Resurrection
This morning at 9 a.
m.
, a patrol was attacked Two soldiers were abducted.
Israel and the IDF will take Lebanon 20 years back.
We will do everything in our power to bring the boys home.
As many as 200 rockets fell on Israeli territory yesterday.
There are moments in the life of a nation in which it has to face reality IDF is recruiting reserve army units Three reserve battalions I got my gear together.
I'm off to war.
Don't worry, it will be fine.
Second time in Lebanon.
Two X's.
Citizens of Zion, you have nothing to worry about We will defeat our enemy.
Good morning, Lebanon! TEL AVIV Baby.
It's over, we're coming home.
Yaeli, are you there? Yes, I'm here.
Is Doron helping you tonight? That's what you care about? The club? Yes, this war will end and we will have to deal with the aftermath.
You have to come home first.
I miss you enough to last a lifetime.
Look at the sunset.
This time tomorrow, we will watch it together.
Danino, you prick, you used up the battery! What's that noise? - Benda.
Just chill, asshole.
- Benda.
- Why do you always shout? - He used up the battery.
And Himmler.
Okay, I have to go.
Tell my idiot brother to call my mom, she's about to have a heart attack.
Okay, beautiful.
- I'll see you back home tomorrow.
- Okay.
Aviv.
I swear, you guys make so much noise.
Here we go.
Yaeli says hi.
Why haven't you called your mother? No, she just stresses me out.
It's like she's mourning over me.
Why are you so smug? Still trying to make water from your piss? - Yes.
- Water? That's Araq at best.
Hey, don't say that to me, Himmler.
It's so fun.
I can't stop.
Now you're acting like a real man? Two days ago, you didn't have your chlorine tablets and you begged me like a little girl to teach you.
Keep up with that shit.
Good luck with getting cancer.
Did you talk to Azoulay? - He was looking for you.
- Really? - Here, have some, Aviv.
Taste it, man.
- No, I'm good.
- Just taste it! - I'll get back to you, man.
Aviv.
Where were you? You talked to Yaeli.
Well, how is she? She's fine.
How is Keren? She's drowning in wedding preparations.
It keeps her busy.
Believe me, that reason alone is enough to get married.
What's up with him? He's the reason I was looking for you.
I need you to learn the route going home.
For real? For real.
- What about Eldad? Eldad! - Leave him alone.
He's wiped out.
Himmler loves navigating, Azoulay.
- He's crazy about it.
- Aviv.
This route will lead us home.
You got it? Just another hour and we will be out of here.
BRIGADE WAR ROOM Where is that? It's 500 meters south of Ayta ash Shab.
A tank from the 77th battalion and a platoon hit an IED zone this afternoon.
Two are severely wounded, a few have minor injuries.
The two other tanks kept moving and made it back.
That tank has broken down.
It's been stuck there ever since.
And we were just told that it's the battalion commander's tank.
The battalion commander's tank? The commander moved to another tank, all the soldiers were evacuated.
It has maps with the code names and locations of all the special units operating in the sector.
Not to mention the radio equipment.
If it falls into Hezbollah hands, the entire sector is exposed.
This is an intel catastrophe.
Luckily, Hezbollah has not detected the tank yet.
It has to be destroyed.
Have you ever made 20 million shekels disappear? What? That's what this monster is worth.
It will be worth much more if Hezbollah gets its hands on it.
It will cost lives.
Am I right? Tell the ground control officer to instruct the IAF to take it out.
Himmler.
Secure my helmet strap, dude.
You baby.
Not too tight.
- Don't be a crybaby.
- Not too tight! Move, crybaby.
- What's the route like? Any climbing? - It's like a walk in the park.
I don't like the idea of going on foot.
We're like ducks at a shooting range.
- Listen, if anything happens to me - Dubi.
Stop, you got this.
You pray for all of us, anyway, don't you? Okay, team, gather round.
Okay, five more hours until we get to have a shower.
We're moving along a straight axis, two kilometers into the groves, then we go east to Ayta, and then we go straight home.
We lead the company.
Kapah Team closes in from the rear.
Benda.
We accomplished a lot this week, we have a lot to be proud of.
Still, keep your eyes open.
Don't be at ease, we're leading a company.
Don't be complacent.
We have one final assignment, to get home to our families safe and sound.
Tank waypoint is 521977-190286.
We have authorization.
It has to be taken out.
Now.
Cheetah Two, this is Cheetah One, over.
This is Cheetah Two, go ahead.
Your location? We are four kilometers away from Ayta.
This is Cheetah One.
Everything going as planned? Affirmative, CO Barak asked us to go back and collect the radio equipment that Revivim forgot to take.
What's going on? Kapah Team has to do an errand.
Roger.
We're waiting for you by the abandoned area.
Roger, over and out.
Send them over to have a look.
Let's scan the area.
Himmler, Benda, scan the area.
What is it doing here alone? It was hit.
The tracks got blown apart.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
This is Barak.
Cheetah One.
This is Cheetah One.
Any activity in the abandoned area? Naama, who's Cheetah One? Commando unit reserves, why? He's asking if there's any activity in the abandoned area.
Give me the radio.
Cheetah One, this is Barak's deputy operations.
Go ahead, deputy.
Your location? I'm in the abandoned area.
There's a lone tank.
It's broken down.
Are you aware of this? Yes.
We're taking it out in a few minutes.
This is Cheetah One, did you say you're taking out the tank? Affirmative, we're taking it out.
Stay away from the tank.
Please confirm.
- This is Cheetah One, copy that.
- Roger.
Let's move back.
We're moving back.
Benda, we're moving back.
Azoulay.
What? I see movement.
The turret is turning.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Two more minutes.
Barak, this is Cheetah One! Barak, this is Cheetah One.
We saw movement in the tank.
Don't shoot.
What is that? Who are they? They're moving like the IDF.
It's probably the commando reserves.
Can you hear me? Is anyone inside? - Who are you? - Bingo.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
There's movement in the tank, don't shoot.
Barak, this is Cheetah One! There are men in the tank.
I repeat, don't open fire! Come out! What are those idiots doing? Give me the radio.
Cheetah One, this is Barak's deputy.
This is Cheetah One.
Keep your ears open.
Do not open fire.
I repeat, there's movement in the tank.
Don't shoot! Cheetah One, keep away from the tank, it will be taken out in 30 seconds.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
There is movement in the tank.
Withdraw.
I repeat, withdraw! Barak, there is movement in the tank.
I repeat, there are living soldiers inside the tank.
Do not open fire! Ran, call off Cliffs.
Now! Come out! Who are you? You ordered it with garlic bread? What's up with you, man? Why isn't your ear on the radio? We have been stuck here since noon.
We hit an IED.
The radio went down.
We thought we would be rescued.
You're lucky we came here by chance.
The brigade was about to take you out.
Get down here.
Where are you going? Soldier! Hey, man, where are you going? Do you think I'll stay inside, am I crazy? Get over here.
Sit down.
- Danino, give the kid something to drink.
- Take it easy.
Here, drink.
Come on.
Hey, soldier, get a grip.
Azoulay, are we staying here because of this young soldier? Are you all right? What do you have inside the tank? Why was it about to be taken out? It's the battalion commander's tank.
That's why I thought we would be rescued.
I didn't think we would be left alone with the maps, the radio equipment.
Did you hear that? Unbelievable.
Thanks, man.
Thanks for coming.
Don't thank us.
Thank him.
We have been hit! Open fire.
Aviv! Danino, take him to the back! Pick him up! Uzan! Over here! Where did they come from? - It's as if they came out of the ground.
- We've been attacked from the south.
We're sustaining heavy fire from the groves.
Cheetah One, this is Cheetah Two, we're three kilometers away.
This is Barak, we've detected at least 30 Hezbollah soldiers moving towards the tank.
Instruct Cliffs to destroy the tank.
Get a stretcher, Eldad.
Eldad, open the stretcher.
- Gideon, give me a light! - Gideon, light! - Barrage! - Barrage! - Barrage! - Barrage! Moyal is down! Benda, your one o'clock! Danino, vacate Moyal now! Tell him we need him.
He has to blast the location in two minutes.
Cheetah One, this is Barak, we're taking out the tank in one minute.
Cheetah One, copy that.
Danino, vacate them.
Vacate! Azoulay! Azoulay is down! Azoulay is down! Azoulay! Azoulay! I'll check him.
He has a chest wound.
Dubi! Dubi, get over here! Aviv Aviv that tank will be blown to pieces in a few seconds.
Man, you can't move.
Call it off.
You can't move! Listen to me, Hezbollah will be here any second.
There is no way they are getting to that tank.
You must get the team out of here.
You're the only one who knows the way.
No way, Azoulay! Dubi! - Hold it.
- Hold it here.
Are you with us? Are you with us? Look at me.
Look at me.
You will be fine.
Goddamn it, Azoulay, you're stuck.
Look at me.
Aviv, look at me.
I'm done for.
Don't stay here because of me.
- Uzan.
- Yes? Here's a Russian tourniquet.
Cheetah One, this is Barak, 60 seconds to strike.
Retreat.
Do you copy? Himmler! Tell Keren I'm sorry.
Cheetah One, this is Barak.
Thirty seconds.
Retreat.
Do you copy? Take the team home.
Cheetah One, this is Barak! Retreat.
Co you copy? Barak, this is Cheetah, copy that.
I need covering fire to vacate.
I repeat, I need covering fire to vacate! This is Barak, covering fire for evacuation approved.
You heard him.
Tell them to bomb the area to the south.
I love you.
Benda, Gideon, retreat! Himler, by the vest.
Come, get up.
- Benda, put the soldier on the stretcher.
- Uzan, help him out.
Where is Azoulay? 11 YEARS LATER BOGOTA, COLOMBIA Enjoy, people.
Man, they don't make hummus like this back home.
Thanks, man.
- Do you live here? - Yes, I do.
- Where are you from? - Shtula, up north.
Shtula! Yaniv, what was the name of that sergeant from Shtula? Rami, wasn't it? Okay then, guys, enjoy your food.
Tell your friends at the casa to come here for hummus, okay? - Sure thing.
- Great, enjoy your trip.
Sweetie, I need one mashawsha hummus, and one makhlouta hummus for table four, okay? Pamper those guys, okay? And two sodas.
- Aren't you forgetting something? - What? Please? Please, sweetie.
See? That wasn't so hard.
No, it wasn't.
- Give me a kiss.
- You give me a kiss.
- Me? - You.
- All right already.
- All right already.
Where is the Oh, there it is.
For that table - and that other one.
- Man, where's our hummus? Coming right up.
Aviv, you have to get up.
You're seeing Alona today.
Are you getting up? I have errands to run.
I'll make you coffee.
Boaz called this morning.
He got an apartment on Florentin Street, he needs another pair of hands.
He's doing a massive renovation.
Did you hear what I said? - He needs more workers to - I heard you the first time.
- Then you can answer me.
- I just woke up, Mom.
I'm taking the car.
I left you money for the bus.
Mom.
All right.
I'll call Boaz, okay? If you want your son to be a floorer so badly, who am I to deny you that? - Have a good day.
- You too.
When will you get the results? In a few days.
It's quick.
It will go straight to your doctor.
A few days? - Yes.
- Did my father talk to you? - Yes, he did.
- Good.
Then I want the results as soon as possible.
Like today.
Some people wait two weeks and that's okay too.
Some people don't have a father who gave the hospital this facility you are working in.
We will do our best.
Thank you.
- I know you will.
- Thank your father.
I'll need a good psychologist to do that, not a doctor.
All good, guys? Benda? Is everything okay, sweetie? What is it? It can't be How was your sleep this week? Aviv? Not so good.
I don't really sleep.
I keep waking up.
As usual.
Do you think there is meaning to the date? You ask me that question every year.
- And? - I give you the same answer every year.
Time has no meaning to me.
Maybe it does to other people, maybe it does to you, but to me Your turn.
I believe you when you say that the date has no meaning, but I can see and feel how you disappear on me in the past month.
Around this time every year Come on, how long are we going to talk about this? That's what we're here for.
- Aren't you fed up? - Of what? Sitting here all day, listening to all these messed up people? I like my job.
What if it was not your job? - Do you think I don't care about you? - Okay.
I know exactly what you're trying to do.
I know all your tricks.
Forget about it, okay? Besides, why bore her with our crap? It's a boy.
Right, I'm sorry.
Tell me, Alona, aren't you scared? Of what? That he will end up like me? Like you? Still peeing in his bed at the age of 34? Never mind.
You're doing the right thing, running away from here.
I'm not running away.
I told you, I'll be on maternity leave for three months and then I'm coming back.
Why come back? When did you start wetting your bed again? It only happened a few times.
This past month, my mother, she acts as if she can't smell the stinking sheets in the washing machine.
It has become her way of coping.
I'm so glad you're sharing this with me.
A 34-year-old man is sitting in front of you, telling you that he's peeing in bed, and you're glad he's sharing it.
Nice.
Tell me the truth.
This is our last session before you go on leave, - what do you really think? - What do you want me to say, Aviv? That I'm a lost cause.
That, after nine years, nothing has really changed.
That's not what I think.
Okay.
Can you promise me something? What? That I'll be okay.
That one day I'll be able to sleep through the night.
That one day I'll be able to be in a room full of people for more than five minutes.
That one day I'll be able to enjoy my mom's food.
That one day my heart will stop longing for Yaeli.
Can you promise me? Aviv, you have your good days, too.
We are not giving up, are we? Excuse me.
What now? Hello.
Yes? - Aviv? - Yes, who is this? What's up? It's Benda.
Benda? Yes.
What is going on? Where are you? I'm in Bogota, man.
How is it going? What are you doing in Bogota? What am I doing? Living.
How did you find me? Dude, all those drugs messed me up, but I still remember your home number.
- No shit.
- It ends with 33.
I talked to your mom.
Bless her soul.
I missed her so much.
Are you all right? What is going on? - I'm fine.
Listen, do you have a minute? - What? Aviv, I don't know how to tell you this.
Tell me what? I think I saw Yaeli today.
You saw who? I'm holding today's newspaper.
It has a picture of someone who looks just like Yaeli.
Benda, are you high? No, man, I'm not high.
I'm telling you, I'm holding today's newspaper, okay? It has a picture of someone who looks just like Yaeli.
Okay, Benda, I'm not laughing, I don't get the joke.
Aviv, I wanted to send it to you, but I decided to call you first.
- Aviv? - What? Yes, I'm here.
Listen, I'm holding this newspaper.
I know it sounds like I am joking, man.
- I'm shaking.
- Benda, that's enough, it's not funny.
Yaeli died nine years ago, this is not cool.
Stop! Okay, I'll hang up and send you the picture, okay? Stay available.
THE CAPT.
YITZHAK (ZACHI) AZOULAY SCHOLARSHIP CEREMONY Since Haim Cohen is sponsoring the event, the phone hasn't stopped ringing.
Everyone wants to come.
Do they even know who he was? Azoulay? Honestly, they couldn't care less.
Look, it's a high-profile event, scholarships for combat soldiers sponsored by Haim Cohen.
Everyone wants to be there.
Anyone who didn't know Zachi isn't getting in.
What do you mean? I don't want any leeches.
Is that clear? Dotan.
Forgive me for butting in, but that's why you pay me.
This event, which is one of the most beautiful things this company does, is an amazing PR opportunity.
I know it sounds cynical, but unlike other events, this one is full of content.
I think it would be a mistake to miss this opportunity.
Opportunity for what? To get positive coverage.
I don't have to tell you.
We are the enemy, us and the banks.
Why? Because we have money.
So, here's an opportunity to show that we have ideals, too.
This event is worth more than 1,000 ads with a stupid, jaded presenter.
Do you know who this man was? He was with you in the army.
He was your commander, right? He was the finest man I ever met.
I don't donate a million Shekels annually because he was in the army with me.
I do it because it's important to me that he will be remembered.
That his legacy will be remembered.
You're talking to me about PR benefits.
Maybe if you did more than selling sandwiches in the army, you wouldn't talk such nonsense.
DR.
ARGOV Ravit, give me a second.
Yes? - This is Michal from Dr.
Argov's clinic.
- Yes? We have your test results, can you come in today? I suggest that next time you decide to hand in a paper you took off the Internet, you coordinate it with your friends.
Noam, what do you think will happen if everyone starts downloading papers? Or copy-pasting from documents they never read? - Is that a question, Dubi? - Yes, there's a question mark at the end.
- You will suspend everyone? - Try to listen, Noam.
I know that you have a pretty good brain underneath that mop on your head.
Do you think one should be familiar with the place he lives? Like the street, you mean? No, do you think it's important to know what happened here before you were born? - Before your parents were born? - The answer is "yes"? This isn't a test, Noam, just tell me what you think.
I don't know, history is cool, - but the past is the past.
- The past is the past? Did you read the paper you handed in? - No, I didn't have time.
- What if I told you it's a pile of bull, - lies, a distortion of facts? - No way, it's a reliable site.
A reliable site? Is it the same site that said Rabin died in a car accident? Rabin? Never mind.
The point is, you don't even care if it's true or not.
Your grandfather might have fought in that war, don't you care? Dubi, I told you, I have tons of shifts at the mall Listen, Noam, you have two weeks to hand in this paper again, and I'm going to be on your case.
You will study and read several sources, not just one.
Can't you just talk to my parents instead of having me write another paper? - I can even help Abed the janitor.
- No, you can't.
Go on, get to class.
You have history class now, right? Dubi, you're such a downer.
Dubi, there is a guy looking for you at the gate.
- Who is it? - I don't know.
- Do you know him? - Yes.
- I can't let just anyone in.
- He's not coming in.
What are you doing here? I tried calling you, but I guess it was your old number.
What are you doing here, Aviv? Look at this picture.
What is this? Benda sent it to me.
He lives in Bogota and he saw this in a local paper.
Who is she? She looks like Yaeli, doesn't she? How long has it been since I've heard from you? Eight years? And now you're here with this surreal picture you got from Benda, who also disappeared like a ghost? Dubi, please, look at the picture.
She looks like Yaeli, I thought you would want to see.
Look.
- Dubi! - You know, I have a life, Aviv.
Not a bad one, actually.
I have a job, two kids.
What are you doing here? Dubi, is there any chance that Yaeli could be alive? If you had gone to her funeral, then maybe you wouldn't ask that.
- Dubi.
- Go home, Aviv.
- Dubi.
- Go home! Load! Fire! Load! - "My Zachi" - Fire! "This morning I got a call from the printing house, they said our wedding invitations are ready.
The guest list you wrote in your precise, clear handwriting is still on the fridge.
Tomorrow we were supposed to pick your clothes and shoes for the wedding.
You didn't understand why we had to buy more.
You gave me that famous smile of yours and asked me if I'm afraid you won't be handsome enough in the pictures.
You were the most handsome man, my Zachi, my love, even if you wore your dirty uniform with the sweat marks.
I already miss you so much.
The most handsome man, inside and out.
I want to read a Yehuda Amichai poem that you loved.
I hated it so much because I knew it was the poem you would want me to read over your grave.
'Like a man seeking to return to a beloved place, he forgot his book, basket, and glasses on purpose, so he would have an excuse to return to a beloved place.
Thus, we leave here.
Thus, the dead leave us.

Yes, give me a second.
Great, thank you.
- I know where he lives.
- Perfect.
Dubi.
- How is it going? - Himmler? Yes, it's me, Dubi.
You called me, didn't you? Yes, I was not sure if it's you.
Can you talk right now? Sure, I'm in between meetings.
Are you coming to the event? You can bring whoever you want.

I got the email.
So, will you be there? I might.
Listen, Aviv came to see me today.
- Aviv? - Yes.
There is this thing Benda sent him a picture of a girl that looks just like Yaeli.
Benda? Yaeli? You lost me.
He asked me if I thought she could be alive.
Himmler, did you hear what I said? Dotan, you can go in.
Dubi, I I'll get back to you in 30 minutes, I have to go.
Okay, call me.
I'm taking the kids to the park, you want to come? Is something wrong? No, I just spoke to Himmler.
He's organizing an event for Azoulay.
Himmler? Since when did you start speaking to him again? I just asked him how he's doing.
He reminded me that the scholarship event is tonight.
- Do you want to go? - Do you? Your mom is going to be with the kids, anyway.
What's that? Nothing.
I was looking for something, red tape.
What's Yaeli got to do with it? Nothing.
It was in the cabinet.
How about you take them? I'll stay here, I have to Okay.
Zachi, get your ball, we're going to the park.

It's better if he sees your smile when he opens the door.

Mendez? Nice to meet you, my name is Maria.
Benda.
The newspaper gave us your address.
We need your help.
- Sure.
- Thank you.
This is her.
She was a good friend of mine.
All these years, I thought she was dead.
But then, I saw this photo.
Yes, she's very pretty, but she looks sad.
Ricardo, would you happen to have more pictures from that day? Maybe one where you can see her better? Actually, I do.
I have a folder that can actually help you.
Here it is.
You can look through the folder while I make you something to drink.
- What would you like? Coffee? - Coffee sounds fine.
- Coffee, yes.
- Thank you.
One sugar, please.

You should leave.
Ricardo, this is very important to me.
Please give us another minute.
Please! You have to leave! He is hiding something.
I know, but what? What did you see? Why did he freak out? I don't know.
There was a picture like the one in the paper.
He is hiding something, I know it.
What are we going to do? Wait patiently.
What do you mean? We still have the tools in the car, right? Don't worry, it will be fine.
Let's go.
Dad, can I give you a tattoo? No, not now, sweetheart.
Besides, you know that my students will make fun of me, right? Please, just one.
It's cool.
No, not now.
Bummer.
Who is she? Her name is Yaeli.
She's my sister.
She looks strange.
She does? It's from when she was younger.
Do you miss her? Why do you ask? Why are you looking at her picture? I was just tidying up and I found it.
So, do you miss her? Okay, one tattoo.
Here, okay? So nobody can see it.
Okay, pick one.
Aviv? How is it going? Not too bad.
I'll be right with you.
- I used to be in this business, too.
- Really? I had a club on Rothschild Boulevard.
You didn't tell me that.
Is it near The Magnet? Exactly.
I was one of the owners of The Magnet.
I'm honored, man.
What do you want to drink? Water is fine.
Water it is.
Thanks.
So, what did you want to talk about, man? On the phone, you said it's about Bogota.
I was Yaeli's boyfriend.
Before it happened.
In any case, I would appreciate if you could tell me everything you know.
It's already been nine years, man.
Why are you only asking about it now? Good question.
What do you want to know? Everything.
Everything you remember about her, about the accident.
Here comes the man of the hour.
Where were you? Is everything okay? - Yes.
I just had to do something.
- Okay.
How are we doing? - Amazing.
- Great.
By the way, your brother is here.
I think he and his wife are trying to marry you off again.
Hi, Tami.
How is it going? I'm Sivan, nice to meet you.
Hi, I'm Himmler.
I hate it when you introduce yourself like that.
Yes, I know.
This is a lovely event.
Thank you very much.
Well, I'm going to make sure everything is going smoothly.
You guys have everything you need? - I'm sorry, it was a bad idea.
- Tami, it's all good.
He's stressed out, I get it.
- Your brother is one sad asshole.
- What else is new? I don't understand why you even try.
How did you meet Yaeli? Actually, I didn't know her that well.
We were staying at the same casa, but she was not very friendly.
She kept her distance most of the time.
Our plan was to take a car from Bogota to Ecuador.
She asked if she can join us.
That's it.
Do you remember anything from the accident? The rain was pouring hard when we set out.
The other girls were scared.
I was, too, but I never admitted it.
Maybe that was my mistake.
What about her? Do you remember what she was like? Yes.
It's weird.
I remember looking at her.
It was so stormy outside, but she was calm, fearless.
She had this inner peace.
I was told that the driver lost control, and I was lucky enough to fly out of the car and onto the side of the road.
The others were left in there as the car rolled down the slope some 500 meters away.
Is there a chance anyone survived? Are you serious? Maybe Yaeli was lucky like you.
Listen, Aviv, if anyone survived the fall, they would have been burned alive or swept away in the river below.
No one stood a chance.
Rescue teams scanned the area for two weeks.
If anyone had survived, they would have found them.
Is that how you think she died? I don't know.
But I can tell you that it was rumored among trekkers that some of the coffins returned home empty.
I guess there were no remains to return.
What do you mean empty? You figure it out yourself.
Let me.
You always sucked at this.
Fine.
"Since you were killed, I've hated ceremonies and events, but this event, and I want to thank Dotan for this, is the most beautiful and proper way to remember you.
A man of letters and action.
Each of the soldiers that gets this scholarship will continue your legacy of love for country and man.
" We will take a short break and then award the scholarships.
Enjoy.
- Dubi, we have to talk.
- What are you doing here, Aviv? - We have to talk outside.
- Not here, not now.
- Come outside with me.
We need to talk.
- This is not the time.
Not here.
What are you doing here? - What are you doing? - Dubi, let's go outside, now.
- Aviv.
- Aviv.
Himmler, back off.
This is between me and him.
- Come outside.
- Go home, Aviv.
We will talk tomorrow, I promise.
Leave or I'll throw you out, you hear me? Go on, go.
- Hey.
- Dubi, if you don't come with me now, - I will mess up this party.
- I got this.
Let's go outside, go! What's your problem? - Did you see a body? - What? Did you see a body? - You're sick, Aviv.
You need therapy.
- I am in therapy, believe me.
Look me in the eye.
Did you see a body? Did you see Yaeli's body? Let's continue from when the tank exploded.
Listen, I gave a full statement in the field.
I don't understand why I'm here.
It's just army business, we made a bit of a mess.
Describe to me what happened from that moment on.
Benda and I tried to figure out how many men were wounded.
Benda is Yakir Ben-David.
Aviv took command.
Eldad wasn't capable at that time.
It was bad.
I arranged for quick movement.
I asked for a rescue over the radio.
Why Aviv? He was the only one who was familiar with the route, aside from Azoulay.
We had at least three wounded men, they were bleeding so much.
The tank crewman was severely wounded.
Have you smelt burnt blood before? It sticks to you.
You can't get rid of the smell.
Who gave the order to take out the tank? Aviv said Azoulay did.
It had the radio equipment and intel on the entire sector.
If the tank had fallen into Hezbollah hands, you would be questioning the chief of staff.
Did you see Azoulay after the tank blew up? - There was nothing to see.
- What do you mean? He got hit badly by the RPG, he wouldn't have survived.
- Are you a doctor by profession? - Are you an asshole by profession? All I know is what Aviv told me.
He said he was fatally wounded even before the explosion.
When Aviv left him, he was still alive.
Was he conscious before the tank blew up? Just ask me the question straight.
He was alive before you gave the order to retreat, why did you do that? Azoulay gave the order.
To abandon him? Aviv didn't abandon him! What would you call it? We were a team of 12 reserves.
Do you have that in your papers? Two tank crewmen in shock.
One man severely wounded.
I didn't know how many we were facing there.
No less than 35, 40, 50.
Who knows? They had everything, this insane firepower, RPG, mortar shells, snipers They were waiting for us.
He just left him there.
It was an ambush.
We put the wounded on stretchers and withdrew to the rescue point.
Not before wiping out about 20 Hezbollah dudes, right? Do you think you could ever understand what happened from inside this room? No.
That's why you're telling me.
What, you're writing a book? What was I supposed to do? Stay with Azoulay? You tell me.
I should have died with him? I should have seen my comrades die, too? Because that is what would have happened.
I made a decision, a tough one, to get my comrades out of there.
What would you have done? I would have stayed.
Do you still think you did the right thing? I never said it was the right thing.
I never said that.
I said it was what had to be done.
From what I understand, you didn't stand a chance.
You think you should have stayed there to die? We're soldiers, you know, it happens sometimes.
We die.
Aviv saved Himmler's ass.
Himmler? You mean Dotan Fridman? It's Benda and his bullshit.
He joined us in the Golani Brigade, an uptown, fair-skinned boy, so "Himmler" was the perfect nickname.
Aviv, do you realize that your decision has consequences way beyond what you can imagine? I'm sorry I didn't consider that when bullets were flying over my head.
Azoulay wouldn't have wanted any of us to die for his body.
Be sure of that.
We won't be able to ask him.
- This is - Are you all right, man? Tell me, what did you say to them? I told them what happened.
I see.
Listen, man, I saved your ass.
No one asked you to.
I should have left you there, you would have picked him up yourself.
- Stop - Do not touch me.
You should have.
You know, Himmler, you think you know everything.
You don't have a clue.
I know I didn't leave Azoulay like some steak on the grill.
- You motherfucker! - No, Aviv.
- Okay, let go of me! - Aviv.
It's all right.
Azoulay wouldn't have wanted us to die because of him and you know it! Aviv, that's enough.
- Really? - Really! Is that what you tell yourself? Son of a That's enough.
Damn this.
Shit.
Come on, Himmler, give him a break.
Dubi, you too, get off my case.
They asked me what happened, what I think we should have done.
That's what I said.
Cut the crap, Himmler, as if you give a damn about this inquiry.
All you want is to screw Aviv over.
- Is that what you think, Benda? - Yes! You're such a child.
You just believe everything Aviv tells you.
You're out of line, Himmler.
Do whatever you want.
You would not want to be in his position.
Dubi.
Just because Aviv is dating your sister doesn't mean you have to say "Amen" to every word he says.
This entire evening was so moving.
Good job.
Thank you very much.
Believe me, I'm sick of being set up, too.
Can you at least pretend to be nice? Yes, sorry, I What did you say your name was? You really are nice.
- My name is Sivan.
- Sivan.
Look, this is one of those rare times when it really is me, not you.
You don't even know me.
- I'm just saving you time and heartache.
- Why, what's the deal? If you don't want to date, tell your brother and his wife to back off.
- No, that is not it.
- What is it then? Four hours ago, I was informed that I only have two months to live.
Man, you are original.
Is there anything I can do? You can tell the matchmakers in there that I'm not your type.
But you are.
Okay, then.
So? We have two months.
It will still be the longest relationship I've ever had.
So, you will tell them? How can I say no to a last wish? You were serious.
Dead serious.
Wow Hey, where were you? Not now, I'm tired.
- Aviv.
- Mom, I said not now! Get over here.
Aviv, open the door! Aviv! - Aviv, open - Stop, not now! - Please open the door.
- Not now! Aviv! Just open the door.
Please, Aviv.
Aviv, open the door.
What happened? - Talk to me.
- Enough.
- Tell me what happened.
- Leave me alone, I'm totally messed up! I'm totally messed up! I cannot take it anymore! - I can't take it.
- It's all right.
Stop! I think that Yaeli is alive.
She might be alive.
Do you understand? Do you hear what I'm saying? - I'm messed up! - No, you're not messed up.
- I'm messed up! - You're not messed up, you're not.
You're not messed up.
You're not messed up, don't say that.
Don't say that.
You're not messed up.
I cannot - Aviv? - Hello? You have the same email address? - Benda.
- You have the same e-mail? Yes.
Open it in a minute.
I couldn't resist, babe.
What is this sauce? Stop filming me! Stop.
It's so good.
I can't resist it.
Resurrection.
WHEN HEROES FLY Subtitle translation by Hagit Harel
m.
, a patrol was attacked Two soldiers were abducted.
Israel and the IDF will take Lebanon 20 years back.
We will do everything in our power to bring the boys home.
As many as 200 rockets fell on Israeli territory yesterday.
There are moments in the life of a nation in which it has to face reality IDF is recruiting reserve army units Three reserve battalions I got my gear together.
I'm off to war.
Don't worry, it will be fine.
Second time in Lebanon.
Two X's.
Citizens of Zion, you have nothing to worry about We will defeat our enemy.
Good morning, Lebanon! TEL AVIV Baby.
It's over, we're coming home.
Yaeli, are you there? Yes, I'm here.
Is Doron helping you tonight? That's what you care about? The club? Yes, this war will end and we will have to deal with the aftermath.
You have to come home first.
I miss you enough to last a lifetime.
Look at the sunset.
This time tomorrow, we will watch it together.
Danino, you prick, you used up the battery! What's that noise? - Benda.
Just chill, asshole.
- Benda.
- Why do you always shout? - He used up the battery.
And Himmler.
Okay, I have to go.
Tell my idiot brother to call my mom, she's about to have a heart attack.
Okay, beautiful.
- I'll see you back home tomorrow.
- Okay.
Aviv.
I swear, you guys make so much noise.
Here we go.
Yaeli says hi.
Why haven't you called your mother? No, she just stresses me out.
It's like she's mourning over me.
Why are you so smug? Still trying to make water from your piss? - Yes.
- Water? That's Araq at best.
Hey, don't say that to me, Himmler.
It's so fun.
I can't stop.
Now you're acting like a real man? Two days ago, you didn't have your chlorine tablets and you begged me like a little girl to teach you.
Keep up with that shit.
Good luck with getting cancer.
Did you talk to Azoulay? - He was looking for you.
- Really? - Here, have some, Aviv.
Taste it, man.
- No, I'm good.
- Just taste it! - I'll get back to you, man.
Aviv.
Where were you? You talked to Yaeli.
Well, how is she? She's fine.
How is Keren? She's drowning in wedding preparations.
It keeps her busy.
Believe me, that reason alone is enough to get married.
What's up with him? He's the reason I was looking for you.
I need you to learn the route going home.
For real? For real.
- What about Eldad? Eldad! - Leave him alone.
He's wiped out.
Himmler loves navigating, Azoulay.
- He's crazy about it.
- Aviv.
This route will lead us home.
You got it? Just another hour and we will be out of here.
BRIGADE WAR ROOM Where is that? It's 500 meters south of Ayta ash Shab.
A tank from the 77th battalion and a platoon hit an IED zone this afternoon.
Two are severely wounded, a few have minor injuries.
The two other tanks kept moving and made it back.
That tank has broken down.
It's been stuck there ever since.
And we were just told that it's the battalion commander's tank.
The battalion commander's tank? The commander moved to another tank, all the soldiers were evacuated.
It has maps with the code names and locations of all the special units operating in the sector.
Not to mention the radio equipment.
If it falls into Hezbollah hands, the entire sector is exposed.
This is an intel catastrophe.
Luckily, Hezbollah has not detected the tank yet.
It has to be destroyed.
Have you ever made 20 million shekels disappear? What? That's what this monster is worth.
It will be worth much more if Hezbollah gets its hands on it.
It will cost lives.
Am I right? Tell the ground control officer to instruct the IAF to take it out.
Himmler.
Secure my helmet strap, dude.
You baby.
Not too tight.
- Don't be a crybaby.
- Not too tight! Move, crybaby.
- What's the route like? Any climbing? - It's like a walk in the park.
I don't like the idea of going on foot.
We're like ducks at a shooting range.
- Listen, if anything happens to me - Dubi.
Stop, you got this.
You pray for all of us, anyway, don't you? Okay, team, gather round.
Okay, five more hours until we get to have a shower.
We're moving along a straight axis, two kilometers into the groves, then we go east to Ayta, and then we go straight home.
We lead the company.
Kapah Team closes in from the rear.
Benda.
We accomplished a lot this week, we have a lot to be proud of.
Still, keep your eyes open.
Don't be at ease, we're leading a company.
Don't be complacent.
We have one final assignment, to get home to our families safe and sound.
Tank waypoint is 521977-190286.
We have authorization.
It has to be taken out.
Now.
Cheetah Two, this is Cheetah One, over.
This is Cheetah Two, go ahead.
Your location? We are four kilometers away from Ayta.
This is Cheetah One.
Everything going as planned? Affirmative, CO Barak asked us to go back and collect the radio equipment that Revivim forgot to take.
What's going on? Kapah Team has to do an errand.
Roger.
We're waiting for you by the abandoned area.
Roger, over and out.
Send them over to have a look.
Let's scan the area.
Himmler, Benda, scan the area.
What is it doing here alone? It was hit.
The tracks got blown apart.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
This is Barak.
Cheetah One.
This is Cheetah One.
Any activity in the abandoned area? Naama, who's Cheetah One? Commando unit reserves, why? He's asking if there's any activity in the abandoned area.
Give me the radio.
Cheetah One, this is Barak's deputy operations.
Go ahead, deputy.
Your location? I'm in the abandoned area.
There's a lone tank.
It's broken down.
Are you aware of this? Yes.
We're taking it out in a few minutes.
This is Cheetah One, did you say you're taking out the tank? Affirmative, we're taking it out.
Stay away from the tank.
Please confirm.
- This is Cheetah One, copy that.
- Roger.
Let's move back.
We're moving back.
Benda, we're moving back.
Azoulay.
What? I see movement.
The turret is turning.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Two more minutes.
Barak, this is Cheetah One! Barak, this is Cheetah One.
We saw movement in the tank.
Don't shoot.
What is that? Who are they? They're moving like the IDF.
It's probably the commando reserves.
Can you hear me? Is anyone inside? - Who are you? - Bingo.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
There's movement in the tank, don't shoot.
Barak, this is Cheetah One! There are men in the tank.
I repeat, don't open fire! Come out! What are those idiots doing? Give me the radio.
Cheetah One, this is Barak's deputy.
This is Cheetah One.
Keep your ears open.
Do not open fire.
I repeat, there's movement in the tank.
Don't shoot! Cheetah One, keep away from the tank, it will be taken out in 30 seconds.
Barak, this is Cheetah One.
There is movement in the tank.
Withdraw.
I repeat, withdraw! Barak, there is movement in the tank.
I repeat, there are living soldiers inside the tank.
Do not open fire! Ran, call off Cliffs.
Now! Come out! Who are you? You ordered it with garlic bread? What's up with you, man? Why isn't your ear on the radio? We have been stuck here since noon.
We hit an IED.
The radio went down.
We thought we would be rescued.
You're lucky we came here by chance.
The brigade was about to take you out.
Get down here.
Where are you going? Soldier! Hey, man, where are you going? Do you think I'll stay inside, am I crazy? Get over here.
Sit down.
- Danino, give the kid something to drink.
- Take it easy.
Here, drink.
Come on.
Hey, soldier, get a grip.
Azoulay, are we staying here because of this young soldier? Are you all right? What do you have inside the tank? Why was it about to be taken out? It's the battalion commander's tank.
That's why I thought we would be rescued.
I didn't think we would be left alone with the maps, the radio equipment.
Did you hear that? Unbelievable.
Thanks, man.
Thanks for coming.
Don't thank us.
Thank him.
We have been hit! Open fire.
Aviv! Danino, take him to the back! Pick him up! Uzan! Over here! Where did they come from? - It's as if they came out of the ground.
- We've been attacked from the south.
We're sustaining heavy fire from the groves.
Cheetah One, this is Cheetah Two, we're three kilometers away.
This is Barak, we've detected at least 30 Hezbollah soldiers moving towards the tank.
Instruct Cliffs to destroy the tank.
Get a stretcher, Eldad.
Eldad, open the stretcher.
- Gideon, give me a light! - Gideon, light! - Barrage! - Barrage! - Barrage! - Barrage! Moyal is down! Benda, your one o'clock! Danino, vacate Moyal now! Tell him we need him.
He has to blast the location in two minutes.
Cheetah One, this is Barak, we're taking out the tank in one minute.
Cheetah One, copy that.
Danino, vacate them.
Vacate! Azoulay! Azoulay is down! Azoulay is down! Azoulay! Azoulay! I'll check him.
He has a chest wound.
Dubi! Dubi, get over here! Aviv Aviv that tank will be blown to pieces in a few seconds.
Man, you can't move.
Call it off.
You can't move! Listen to me, Hezbollah will be here any second.
There is no way they are getting to that tank.
You must get the team out of here.
You're the only one who knows the way.
No way, Azoulay! Dubi! - Hold it.
- Hold it here.
Are you with us? Are you with us? Look at me.
Look at me.
You will be fine.
Goddamn it, Azoulay, you're stuck.
Look at me.
Aviv, look at me.
I'm done for.
Don't stay here because of me.
- Uzan.
- Yes? Here's a Russian tourniquet.
Cheetah One, this is Barak, 60 seconds to strike.
Retreat.
Do you copy? Himmler! Tell Keren I'm sorry.
Cheetah One, this is Barak.
Thirty seconds.
Retreat.
Do you copy? Take the team home.
Cheetah One, this is Barak! Retreat.
Co you copy? Barak, this is Cheetah, copy that.
I need covering fire to vacate.
I repeat, I need covering fire to vacate! This is Barak, covering fire for evacuation approved.
You heard him.
Tell them to bomb the area to the south.
I love you.
Benda, Gideon, retreat! Himler, by the vest.
Come, get up.
- Benda, put the soldier on the stretcher.
- Uzan, help him out.
Where is Azoulay? 11 YEARS LATER BOGOTA, COLOMBIA Enjoy, people.
Man, they don't make hummus like this back home.
Thanks, man.
- Do you live here? - Yes, I do.
- Where are you from? - Shtula, up north.
Shtula! Yaniv, what was the name of that sergeant from Shtula? Rami, wasn't it? Okay then, guys, enjoy your food.
Tell your friends at the casa to come here for hummus, okay? - Sure thing.
- Great, enjoy your trip.
Sweetie, I need one mashawsha hummus, and one makhlouta hummus for table four, okay? Pamper those guys, okay? And two sodas.
- Aren't you forgetting something? - What? Please? Please, sweetie.
See? That wasn't so hard.
No, it wasn't.
- Give me a kiss.
- You give me a kiss.
- Me? - You.
- All right already.
- All right already.
Where is the Oh, there it is.
For that table - and that other one.
- Man, where's our hummus? Coming right up.
Aviv, you have to get up.
You're seeing Alona today.
Are you getting up? I have errands to run.
I'll make you coffee.
Boaz called this morning.
He got an apartment on Florentin Street, he needs another pair of hands.
He's doing a massive renovation.
Did you hear what I said? - He needs more workers to - I heard you the first time.
- Then you can answer me.
- I just woke up, Mom.
I'm taking the car.
I left you money for the bus.
Mom.
All right.
I'll call Boaz, okay? If you want your son to be a floorer so badly, who am I to deny you that? - Have a good day.
- You too.
When will you get the results? In a few days.
It's quick.
It will go straight to your doctor.
A few days? - Yes.
- Did my father talk to you? - Yes, he did.
- Good.
Then I want the results as soon as possible.
Like today.
Some people wait two weeks and that's okay too.
Some people don't have a father who gave the hospital this facility you are working in.
We will do our best.
Thank you.
- I know you will.
- Thank your father.
I'll need a good psychologist to do that, not a doctor.
All good, guys? Benda? Is everything okay, sweetie? What is it? It can't be How was your sleep this week? Aviv? Not so good.
I don't really sleep.
I keep waking up.
As usual.
Do you think there is meaning to the date? You ask me that question every year.
- And? - I give you the same answer every year.
Time has no meaning to me.
Maybe it does to other people, maybe it does to you, but to me Your turn.
I believe you when you say that the date has no meaning, but I can see and feel how you disappear on me in the past month.
Around this time every year Come on, how long are we going to talk about this? That's what we're here for.
- Aren't you fed up? - Of what? Sitting here all day, listening to all these messed up people? I like my job.
What if it was not your job? - Do you think I don't care about you? - Okay.
I know exactly what you're trying to do.
I know all your tricks.
Forget about it, okay? Besides, why bore her with our crap? It's a boy.
Right, I'm sorry.
Tell me, Alona, aren't you scared? Of what? That he will end up like me? Like you? Still peeing in his bed at the age of 34? Never mind.
You're doing the right thing, running away from here.
I'm not running away.
I told you, I'll be on maternity leave for three months and then I'm coming back.
Why come back? When did you start wetting your bed again? It only happened a few times.
This past month, my mother, she acts as if she can't smell the stinking sheets in the washing machine.
It has become her way of coping.
I'm so glad you're sharing this with me.
A 34-year-old man is sitting in front of you, telling you that he's peeing in bed, and you're glad he's sharing it.
Nice.
Tell me the truth.
This is our last session before you go on leave, - what do you really think? - What do you want me to say, Aviv? That I'm a lost cause.
That, after nine years, nothing has really changed.
That's not what I think.
Okay.
Can you promise me something? What? That I'll be okay.
That one day I'll be able to sleep through the night.
That one day I'll be able to be in a room full of people for more than five minutes.
That one day I'll be able to enjoy my mom's food.
That one day my heart will stop longing for Yaeli.
Can you promise me? Aviv, you have your good days, too.
We are not giving up, are we? Excuse me.
What now? Hello.
Yes? - Aviv? - Yes, who is this? What's up? It's Benda.
Benda? Yes.
What is going on? Where are you? I'm in Bogota, man.
How is it going? What are you doing in Bogota? What am I doing? Living.
How did you find me? Dude, all those drugs messed me up, but I still remember your home number.
- No shit.
- It ends with 33.
I talked to your mom.
Bless her soul.
I missed her so much.
Are you all right? What is going on? - I'm fine.
Listen, do you have a minute? - What? Aviv, I don't know how to tell you this.
Tell me what? I think I saw Yaeli today.
You saw who? I'm holding today's newspaper.
It has a picture of someone who looks just like Yaeli.
Benda, are you high? No, man, I'm not high.
I'm telling you, I'm holding today's newspaper, okay? It has a picture of someone who looks just like Yaeli.
Okay, Benda, I'm not laughing, I don't get the joke.
Aviv, I wanted to send it to you, but I decided to call you first.
- Aviv? - What? Yes, I'm here.
Listen, I'm holding this newspaper.
I know it sounds like I am joking, man.
- I'm shaking.
- Benda, that's enough, it's not funny.
Yaeli died nine years ago, this is not cool.
Stop! Okay, I'll hang up and send you the picture, okay? Stay available.
THE CAPT.
YITZHAK (ZACHI) AZOULAY SCHOLARSHIP CEREMONY Since Haim Cohen is sponsoring the event, the phone hasn't stopped ringing.
Everyone wants to come.
Do they even know who he was? Azoulay? Honestly, they couldn't care less.
Look, it's a high-profile event, scholarships for combat soldiers sponsored by Haim Cohen.
Everyone wants to be there.
Anyone who didn't know Zachi isn't getting in.
What do you mean? I don't want any leeches.
Is that clear? Dotan.
Forgive me for butting in, but that's why you pay me.
This event, which is one of the most beautiful things this company does, is an amazing PR opportunity.
I know it sounds cynical, but unlike other events, this one is full of content.
I think it would be a mistake to miss this opportunity.
Opportunity for what? To get positive coverage.
I don't have to tell you.
We are the enemy, us and the banks.
Why? Because we have money.
So, here's an opportunity to show that we have ideals, too.
This event is worth more than 1,000 ads with a stupid, jaded presenter.
Do you know who this man was? He was with you in the army.
He was your commander, right? He was the finest man I ever met.
I don't donate a million Shekels annually because he was in the army with me.
I do it because it's important to me that he will be remembered.
That his legacy will be remembered.
You're talking to me about PR benefits.
Maybe if you did more than selling sandwiches in the army, you wouldn't talk such nonsense.
DR.
ARGOV Ravit, give me a second.
Yes? - This is Michal from Dr.
Argov's clinic.
- Yes? We have your test results, can you come in today? I suggest that next time you decide to hand in a paper you took off the Internet, you coordinate it with your friends.
Noam, what do you think will happen if everyone starts downloading papers? Or copy-pasting from documents they never read? - Is that a question, Dubi? - Yes, there's a question mark at the end.
- You will suspend everyone? - Try to listen, Noam.
I know that you have a pretty good brain underneath that mop on your head.
Do you think one should be familiar with the place he lives? Like the street, you mean? No, do you think it's important to know what happened here before you were born? - Before your parents were born? - The answer is "yes"? This isn't a test, Noam, just tell me what you think.
I don't know, history is cool, - but the past is the past.
- The past is the past? Did you read the paper you handed in? - No, I didn't have time.
- What if I told you it's a pile of bull, - lies, a distortion of facts? - No way, it's a reliable site.
A reliable site? Is it the same site that said Rabin died in a car accident? Rabin? Never mind.
The point is, you don't even care if it's true or not.
Your grandfather might have fought in that war, don't you care? Dubi, I told you, I have tons of shifts at the mall Listen, Noam, you have two weeks to hand in this paper again, and I'm going to be on your case.
You will study and read several sources, not just one.
Can't you just talk to my parents instead of having me write another paper? - I can even help Abed the janitor.
- No, you can't.
Go on, get to class.
You have history class now, right? Dubi, you're such a downer.
Dubi, there is a guy looking for you at the gate.
- Who is it? - I don't know.
- Do you know him? - Yes.
- I can't let just anyone in.
- He's not coming in.
What are you doing here? I tried calling you, but I guess it was your old number.
What are you doing here, Aviv? Look at this picture.
What is this? Benda sent it to me.
He lives in Bogota and he saw this in a local paper.
Who is she? She looks like Yaeli, doesn't she? How long has it been since I've heard from you? Eight years? And now you're here with this surreal picture you got from Benda, who also disappeared like a ghost? Dubi, please, look at the picture.
She looks like Yaeli, I thought you would want to see.
Look.
- Dubi! - You know, I have a life, Aviv.
Not a bad one, actually.
I have a job, two kids.
What are you doing here? Dubi, is there any chance that Yaeli could be alive? If you had gone to her funeral, then maybe you wouldn't ask that.
- Dubi.
- Go home, Aviv.
- Dubi.
- Go home! Load! Fire! Load! - "My Zachi" - Fire! "This morning I got a call from the printing house, they said our wedding invitations are ready.
The guest list you wrote in your precise, clear handwriting is still on the fridge.
Tomorrow we were supposed to pick your clothes and shoes for the wedding.
You didn't understand why we had to buy more.
You gave me that famous smile of yours and asked me if I'm afraid you won't be handsome enough in the pictures.
You were the most handsome man, my Zachi, my love, even if you wore your dirty uniform with the sweat marks.
I already miss you so much.
The most handsome man, inside and out.
I want to read a Yehuda Amichai poem that you loved.
I hated it so much because I knew it was the poem you would want me to read over your grave.
'Like a man seeking to return to a beloved place, he forgot his book, basket, and glasses on purpose, so he would have an excuse to return to a beloved place.
Thus, we leave here.
Thus, the dead leave us.
" Hello, how are you? This is Maria.
We are looking for a photographer that works for you.
His name is Ricardo Mendez.
Can you give me his address? Ricardo Mendez.
Thank you.
Yes, give me a second.
Great, thank you.
- I know where he lives.
- Perfect.
Dubi.
- How is it going? - Himmler? Yes, it's me, Dubi.
You called me, didn't you? Yes, I was not sure if it's you.
Can you talk right now? Sure, I'm in between meetings.
Are you coming to the event? You can bring whoever you want.
What event? - The event for Azoulay.
- Right.
Yes.
I got the email.
So, will you be there? I might.
Listen, Aviv came to see me today.
- Aviv? - Yes.
There is this thing Benda sent him a picture of a girl that looks just like Yaeli.
Benda? Yaeli? You lost me.
He asked me if I thought she could be alive.
Himmler, did you hear what I said? Dotan, you can go in.
Dubi, I I'll get back to you in 30 minutes, I have to go.
Okay, call me.
I'm taking the kids to the park, you want to come? Is something wrong? No, I just spoke to Himmler.
He's organizing an event for Azoulay.
Himmler? Since when did you start speaking to him again? I just asked him how he's doing.
He reminded me that the scholarship event is tonight.
- Do you want to go? - Do you? Your mom is going to be with the kids, anyway.
What's that? Nothing.
I was looking for something, red tape.
What's Yaeli got to do with it? Nothing.
It was in the cabinet.
How about you take them? I'll stay here, I have to Okay.
Zachi, get your ball, we're going to the park.
With me? - It's the blue house.
- Yes, I see it.
Okay, we will ring the bell and then what? We will ask for help? Yes.
Let's go.
You knock.
It's better if he sees your smile when he opens the door.
- Hello.
- Mr.
Mendez? Nice to meet you, my name is Maria.
Benda.
The newspaper gave us your address.
We need your help.
- Sure.
- Thank you.
This is her.
She was a good friend of mine.
All these years, I thought she was dead.
But then, I saw this photo.
Yes, she's very pretty, but she looks sad.
Ricardo, would you happen to have more pictures from that day? Maybe one where you can see her better? Actually, I do.
I have a folder that can actually help you.
Here it is.
You can look through the folder while I make you something to drink.
- What would you like? Coffee? - Coffee sounds fine.
- Coffee, yes.
- Thank you.
One sugar, please.
Open it.
Keep going 36 PICTURES HE DIED SO WE MIGHT LIVE DEATH IN THE BIG TRIP THE SURVIVOR DEATH IN THE BIG TRIP THE SURVIVOR THE SURVIVOR, HAGAI ELKAYAM, SURVIVED THE HORRENDOUS ACCIDEN AND IS HOSPITALIZED IN BOGOTA Here you go.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Listen, I just remembered I have to go somewhere.
So if you could - Ricardo, we just need another minute.
- No.
Talk to me tomorrow.
I have to go.
You should leave.
Ricardo, this is very important to me.
Please give us another minute.
Please! You have to leave! He is hiding something.
I know, but what? What did you see? Why did he freak out? I don't know.
There was a picture like the one in the paper.
He is hiding something, I know it.
What are we going to do? Wait patiently.
What do you mean? We still have the tools in the car, right? Don't worry, it will be fine.
Let's go.
Dad, can I give you a tattoo? No, not now, sweetheart.
Besides, you know that my students will make fun of me, right? Please, just one.
It's cool.
No, not now.
Bummer.
Who is she? Her name is Yaeli.
She's my sister.
She looks strange.
She does? It's from when she was younger.
Do you miss her? Why do you ask? Why are you looking at her picture? I was just tidying up and I found it.
So, do you miss her? Okay, one tattoo.
Here, okay? So nobody can see it.
Okay, pick one.
Aviv? How is it going? Not too bad.
I'll be right with you.
- I used to be in this business, too.
- Really? I had a club on Rothschild Boulevard.
You didn't tell me that.
Is it near The Magnet? Exactly.
I was one of the owners of The Magnet.
I'm honored, man.
What do you want to drink? Water is fine.
Water it is.
Thanks.
So, what did you want to talk about, man? On the phone, you said it's about Bogota.
I was Yaeli's boyfriend.
Before it happened.
In any case, I would appreciate if you could tell me everything you know.
It's already been nine years, man.
Why are you only asking about it now? Good question.
What do you want to know? Everything.
Everything you remember about her, about the accident.
Here comes the man of the hour.
Where were you? Is everything okay? - Yes.
I just had to do something.
- Okay.
How are we doing? - Amazing.
- Great.
By the way, your brother is here.
I think he and his wife are trying to marry you off again.
Hi, Tami.
How is it going? I'm Sivan, nice to meet you.
Hi, I'm Himmler.
I hate it when you introduce yourself like that.
Yes, I know.
This is a lovely event.
Thank you very much.
Well, I'm going to make sure everything is going smoothly.
You guys have everything you need? - I'm sorry, it was a bad idea.
- Tami, it's all good.
He's stressed out, I get it.
- Your brother is one sad asshole.
- What else is new? I don't understand why you even try.
How did you meet Yaeli? Actually, I didn't know her that well.
We were staying at the same casa, but she was not very friendly.
She kept her distance most of the time.
Our plan was to take a car from Bogota to Ecuador.
She asked if she can join us.
That's it.
Do you remember anything from the accident? The rain was pouring hard when we set out.
The other girls were scared.
I was, too, but I never admitted it.
Maybe that was my mistake.
What about her? Do you remember what she was like? Yes.
It's weird.
I remember looking at her.
It was so stormy outside, but she was calm, fearless.
She had this inner peace.
I was told that the driver lost control, and I was lucky enough to fly out of the car and onto the side of the road.
The others were left in there as the car rolled down the slope some 500 meters away.
Is there a chance anyone survived? Are you serious? Maybe Yaeli was lucky like you.
Listen, Aviv, if anyone survived the fall, they would have been burned alive or swept away in the river below.
No one stood a chance.
Rescue teams scanned the area for two weeks.
If anyone had survived, they would have found them.
Is that how you think she died? I don't know.
But I can tell you that it was rumored among trekkers that some of the coffins returned home empty.
I guess there were no remains to return.
What do you mean empty? You figure it out yourself.
Let me.
You always sucked at this.
Fine.
"Since you were killed, I've hated ceremonies and events, but this event, and I want to thank Dotan for this, is the most beautiful and proper way to remember you.
A man of letters and action.
Each of the soldiers that gets this scholarship will continue your legacy of love for country and man.
" We will take a short break and then award the scholarships.
Enjoy.
- Dubi, we have to talk.
- What are you doing here, Aviv? - We have to talk outside.
- Not here, not now.
- Come outside with me.
We need to talk.
- This is not the time.
Not here.
What are you doing here? - What are you doing? - Dubi, let's go outside, now.
- Aviv.
- Aviv.
Himmler, back off.
This is between me and him.
- Come outside.
- Go home, Aviv.
We will talk tomorrow, I promise.
Leave or I'll throw you out, you hear me? Go on, go.
- Hey.
- Dubi, if you don't come with me now, - I will mess up this party.
- I got this.
Let's go outside, go! What's your problem? - Did you see a body? - What? Did you see a body? - You're sick, Aviv.
You need therapy.
- I am in therapy, believe me.
Look me in the eye.
Did you see a body? Did you see Yaeli's body? Let's continue from when the tank exploded.
Listen, I gave a full statement in the field.
I don't understand why I'm here.
It's just army business, we made a bit of a mess.
Describe to me what happened from that moment on.
Benda and I tried to figure out how many men were wounded.
Benda is Yakir Ben-David.
Aviv took command.
Eldad wasn't capable at that time.
It was bad.
I arranged for quick movement.
I asked for a rescue over the radio.
Why Aviv? He was the only one who was familiar with the route, aside from Azoulay.
We had at least three wounded men, they were bleeding so much.
The tank crewman was severely wounded.
Have you smelt burnt blood before? It sticks to you.
You can't get rid of the smell.
Who gave the order to take out the tank? Aviv said Azoulay did.
It had the radio equipment and intel on the entire sector.
If the tank had fallen into Hezbollah hands, you would be questioning the chief of staff.
Did you see Azoulay after the tank blew up? - There was nothing to see.
- What do you mean? He got hit badly by the RPG, he wouldn't have survived.
- Are you a doctor by profession? - Are you an asshole by profession? All I know is what Aviv told me.
He said he was fatally wounded even before the explosion.
When Aviv left him, he was still alive.
Was he conscious before the tank blew up? Just ask me the question straight.
He was alive before you gave the order to retreat, why did you do that? Azoulay gave the order.
To abandon him? Aviv didn't abandon him! What would you call it? We were a team of 12 reserves.
Do you have that in your papers? Two tank crewmen in shock.
One man severely wounded.
I didn't know how many we were facing there.
No less than 35, 40, 50.
Who knows? They had everything, this insane firepower, RPG, mortar shells, snipers They were waiting for us.
He just left him there.
It was an ambush.
We put the wounded on stretchers and withdrew to the rescue point.
Not before wiping out about 20 Hezbollah dudes, right? Do you think you could ever understand what happened from inside this room? No.
That's why you're telling me.
What, you're writing a book? What was I supposed to do? Stay with Azoulay? You tell me.
I should have died with him? I should have seen my comrades die, too? Because that is what would have happened.
I made a decision, a tough one, to get my comrades out of there.
What would you have done? I would have stayed.
Do you still think you did the right thing? I never said it was the right thing.
I never said that.
I said it was what had to be done.
From what I understand, you didn't stand a chance.
You think you should have stayed there to die? We're soldiers, you know, it happens sometimes.
We die.
Aviv saved Himmler's ass.
Himmler? You mean Dotan Fridman? It's Benda and his bullshit.
He joined us in the Golani Brigade, an uptown, fair-skinned boy, so "Himmler" was the perfect nickname.
Aviv, do you realize that your decision has consequences way beyond what you can imagine? I'm sorry I didn't consider that when bullets were flying over my head.
Azoulay wouldn't have wanted any of us to die for his body.
Be sure of that.
We won't be able to ask him.
- This is - Are you all right, man? Tell me, what did you say to them? I told them what happened.
I see.
Listen, man, I saved your ass.
No one asked you to.
I should have left you there, you would have picked him up yourself.
- Stop - Do not touch me.
You should have.
You know, Himmler, you think you know everything.
You don't have a clue.
I know I didn't leave Azoulay like some steak on the grill.
- You motherfucker! - No, Aviv.
- Okay, let go of me! - Aviv.
It's all right.
Azoulay wouldn't have wanted us to die because of him and you know it! Aviv, that's enough.
- Really? - Really! Is that what you tell yourself? Son of a That's enough.
Damn this.
Shit.
Come on, Himmler, give him a break.
Dubi, you too, get off my case.
They asked me what happened, what I think we should have done.
That's what I said.
Cut the crap, Himmler, as if you give a damn about this inquiry.
All you want is to screw Aviv over.
- Is that what you think, Benda? - Yes! You're such a child.
You just believe everything Aviv tells you.
You're out of line, Himmler.
Do whatever you want.
You would not want to be in his position.
Dubi.
Just because Aviv is dating your sister doesn't mean you have to say "Amen" to every word he says.
This entire evening was so moving.
Good job.
Thank you very much.
Believe me, I'm sick of being set up, too.
Can you at least pretend to be nice? Yes, sorry, I What did you say your name was? You really are nice.
- My name is Sivan.
- Sivan.
Look, this is one of those rare times when it really is me, not you.
You don't even know me.
- I'm just saving you time and heartache.
- Why, what's the deal? If you don't want to date, tell your brother and his wife to back off.
- No, that is not it.
- What is it then? Four hours ago, I was informed that I only have two months to live.
Man, you are original.
Is there anything I can do? You can tell the matchmakers in there that I'm not your type.
But you are.
Okay, then.
So? We have two months.
It will still be the longest relationship I've ever had.
So, you will tell them? How can I say no to a last wish? You were serious.
Dead serious.
Wow Hey, where were you? Not now, I'm tired.
- Aviv.
- Mom, I said not now! Get over here.
Aviv, open the door! Aviv! - Aviv, open - Stop, not now! - Please open the door.
- Not now! Aviv! Just open the door.
Please, Aviv.
Aviv, open the door.
What happened? - Talk to me.
- Enough.
- Tell me what happened.
- Leave me alone, I'm totally messed up! I'm totally messed up! I cannot take it anymore! - I can't take it.
- It's all right.
Stop! I think that Yaeli is alive.
She might be alive.
Do you understand? Do you hear what I'm saying? - I'm messed up! - No, you're not messed up.
- I'm messed up! - You're not messed up, you're not.
You're not messed up.
You're not messed up, don't say that.
Don't say that.
You're not messed up.
I cannot - Aviv? - Hello? You have the same email address? - Benda.
- You have the same e-mail? Yes.
Open it in a minute.
I couldn't resist, babe.
What is this sauce? Stop filming me! Stop.
It's so good.
I can't resist it.
Resurrection.
