In 1964 Nomi Shemer, the famous Israeli singer song writer, met two Mossad agents in Paris: best friends, brothers in arms, both from the famous Moshav, the Village of Nahalal, Yosale Regev and Zevele Amit. After meeting the two, Shemer was inspired to write the song "The Two of Us are from the Same Village" the song depicts the adventures of two best friends that fought and worked the land together. The song is one of the most well known and well loved songs in the Israeli culture. In the song, Shemer "kills" one of the friends. At the time, they had asked her why she chose to "kill" one of them in the song, she replied, artistic license. 9 years later, Zevele Amit was killed in the Yom Kippur war (1973), at the Suez Canal, serving by his good friend and commander, Ariel Sharon. In this documentary film, Amnon Amit, Zevele's son, useing the song as a road map, goes on a journey to find out who his father really was and for the first time in his adult life, deals with the stories that made his father, whom he really never knew into a mythological hero.
