Avraham Sinai, an ultra-Orthodox Jew living in Israel, was born Ibrahim Yassin, and he became one of Israel's leading spies - a Lebanese Muslim with an inconceivable association to Hezbollah.

Born in a small village in Lebanon he was destined to follow in his father’s footsteps as a farmer and shepherd, but life took another course, and death became his objective. What unfolds in this suspenseful documentary shows that truth is often more extraordinary than fiction. Yassin is at the heart of some of the most daring, dangerous and secret operations Israel attempted in Lebanon in the 1980s and ’90s.

The Rabbi from Hezbollah is an intimate portrait of a man who through tribulations, coincidence and choice became one of Israel’s leading spies.
