You cannot understand Israeli politics without understanding the Likud, the dominant party in Israel for almost 50 years. Beyond the extraordinary life of a man who grew up in a working-class family in Rabat, David Levy's story embodies the struggle of Morrocan Jews in Israel. The film reveals new angles on Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu and his complex relations with Sephardim/Mizrahim; The tension between periphery-center, Ashkenazi and Mizrachi Jews, the "first" Israel and the "second" Israel are all present in the life story of the man who was the king of Israel but did not succeed to become Prime Minister. After 15 years of almost complete media silence, David Levy conducts in front of the camera a self-examination of his life. A self-examination of a politician and statesman, whose life story is very much the significant and central story of the state of Israel in the last decades.
