Intense siege drama based on actual events.

Marking the 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur War, The Stronghold delivers a powerful and intimate portrayal of Israeli soldiers during one of the nation’s most pivotal battles. Set at an IDF outpost on the Suez Canal, the film follows 42 soldiers under siege, as a young lieutenant and an army doctor face a life-or-death decision. With standout performances by beloved Israeli actors like Michael Aloni and Ohad Knoller, this gripping war drama is both a cinematic tribute to the fallen and a poignant reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and humanity that define Israel’s collective memory and resilience.
