Description

In 1984, four armed Palestinian terrorists hijacked a bus en route from Tel Aviv to Ashkelon, taking the passengers hostage and steering the bus towards Gaza. Through interviews with Israeli officials at the time and dramatic reenactments of the bus takeover and the daring rescue, this powerful docudrama portrays the human drama and personal stories behind both the hijacking and subsequent investigation that rocked Israeli society.
