Directed and scripted by Yariv Mozer (known for MJFF official selections We Will Dance Again and Ben-Gurion, Epilogue) and hosted by journalist and news anchor, Danny Kushmaro, Golda’s War Diaries reexamines the contentious legacy of Golda Meir during the Yom Kippur War. Based on newly declassified documents released to mark the 50th anniversary of the war, the documentary reveals Meir’s resolute decision-making and successful diplomacy, which led to an eventual peace agreement with Egypt. This revealing analysis, enriched with archival footage and commentary by many of those who were with her during wartime meetings, private conversations and discussions, is particularly resonant amid Israel's current challenges, offering a nuanced reassessment of one of its most polarizing leaders and tumultuous times.
