Yitzhak Rabin: Soldier of Peace

He was a hardened soldier who astonished the world with a bold offer of peace. But while thousands of Israelis sang of hope, an assassin's bullets proved that hate would be slow to die. Yitzhak Rabin's life was the life of modern Israel itself. Born in Jerusalem in 1922, he joined the Haganah underground army as a teenager and became a commander in the war for independence. He was the architect of Israel's lightning triumph in the Six-Day War and the nation's first native-born Prime Minister. But his greatest victory came when he achieved the unthinkable the historic peace accord between Israel and the PLO. The film spotlights Rabin's marriage to Leah Schlossberg and the celebrated handshake during the Oslo Accords with Yasir Arafat, in the presence of President Bill Clinton. It's a thought-provoking portrait of the man who stood tall in times of war and gave his life in the name of peace.
