Synopsis

In a time when democracy is in danger and truth under attack, the film returns to the life story of the greatest activist of all, Karl Marx, who gave us tools to analyze reality, through an encounter with Israeli activists – Jews and Arabs, who tell about Marx’s influence on them, and open a window into his world in an attempt to present Marxism as a multigenerational and multicultural phenomenon, found in every aspect of our lives.
