Eyal, an emotionally fragile Mossad hitman, is assigned to shadow Axel, a young German whose grandfather is a notorious Nazi war criminal that has eluded justice. Posing as a tour guide, Eyal shepherds Axel around when he comes to visit his kibbutznik sister. Although Eyal at first resists what he considers a boring assignment, he soon warms up to Axel’s bright enthusiasm and intellect, even overcoming his own homophobia when he realizes Axel is gay. When the action shifts to Berlin and the prospect of discovering Axel’s grandfather, the film becomes a taut emotional thriller.
