Yossi Banai

Ariel, a young French Jew, decides to leave his family to go to Israel and secretly become an agent of Mossad, the Israeli secret service. After years of training, his first mission is in Paris to steal secrets from Remy Prieur, a French atomic scientist.

A popular wise man/folk healer is anxious to marry off his daughter, but she refuses all his suggested suitors.

A visually beautiful burlesque fantasy about a fountain-of-youth pill and its effects on Getz, a down-and-out Tel Aviv night-club singer.

Directed by Zeev Havatzelet.

Directed by Menahem Golan.
