Who was Tamar Golan? A Mossad agent? The lover of an Egyptian colonel? How did she influence the peace agreement between Israel and Egypt?

The woman who wore white and pulled the strings behind the scenes of Israeli foreign policy invented a different kind of diplomacy and succeeded where official channels had failed. Yet her name never entered the official records.

After Golan’s death, the film’s director discovered her private archive, through which the film takes us deep into her secrets.

90 min.
