An important figure in the early years of the newly established state of Israel was the first general of a Hebrew army for 2,000 years: 'Mickey' Marcus. This film re-creates some of the spectacular exploits of Marcus and his hastily recruited army, counter-pointing the action with a poignant love story.
Based on the biography of COL DAVID MARCUS by TED BERKMAN Written and directed by MELVILLE SHAVELSON . Films: page 21
