Synopsis

A documentary project based on testimonies from the people who knew closely, Israel’s first Prime Minister and founder, David Ben-Gurion. His security guard, his secretary, his biographer, and his grandsons, among many, bring their recollections of Ben-Gurion’s personality, characteristics, daily routine, and habits. Five short films shed light on different aspects of Ben-Gurion’s life: His persona, his daily routine in his house in Tel Aviv, his life in Kibbutz Sde Boker, his attitude to the Jewish religion, and his wife, Paula.
