Draft 1
Mark Wright, a musician, and his wife Mary, a dancer who is Jewish, rise to fame. They have twin sons, but in a car accident involving Muslim passengers, they lose one of their sons. The passengers of the car also die, and Mark and Mary secretly raise the son of the couple who perished in place of their own son. In the accident, Mary injures her knee and can no longer dance, leading them to move to Israel, where they have a daughter.
Mary is killed in a bombing, and their sons, Amin and Benjamin, grow up harboring hatred towards Arabs and Palestinians. Amin suspects that he is the Muslim son and reveals the truth about the car accident, leaving the family to join ISIS. Upon learning that ISIS plans to carry out a bombing in Tel Aviv, Amin informs his brother and Uriya, a high-ranking Mossad commander, but sacrifices his life to save his sister and her colleagues at the Haaretz newspaper.
Amin provides Uriya with information that leads to cooperation with one of Hezbollah’s most wanted commanders, Mohammad Najjar, also known as Ahlam, and her group, to combat ISIS. Initially, Ahlam refuses to cooperate, seeing the invitation as part of the political agenda of Israel’s war-hungry prime minister. However, after losing 18 of her people in an operation against ISIS and being tortured and raped alongside her two surviving companions, she is rescued at the last moment by Uriya.
Ahlam is a courageous, knowledgeable, and extraordinary commander with many moral dilemmas, earning the admiration and respect of Uriya and his team. The two groups, initially full of distrust, start working together. In a mission to kill Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s brother, they defend each other with great sacrifice, and enmity between Palestinians and Israelis slowly transforms into friendship and unity. A deep love, friendship, and respect develop between Uriya and Ahlam.
The two groups foil a plot to assassinate Amos Litani, a moderate, peace-seeking candidate and a strong rival to Netanyahu who opposes Israeli settlements. The conspiracy, financed by construction companies and the far-right Jewish groups known as the White Helmets, was supported at the highest levels of the government, military, and Mossad. They celebrate their victory, drinking and dancing, but in the final battle with Qassam and ISIS, most of them die heroically side by side.
Following Uriya’s advice, who views Iran as a serious threat to Israel, Litani withdraws from the election, allowing Netanyahu to remain as prime minister. Uriya settles the score and sacrifices his life to save the few who remain.
