A New Trailer Was Released For ‘Golda’ A Biopic Demonstrating A Point Of Life For The Former Prime Minister Of Israel

The thriller, Golda, has just released trailer. Helen Mirren is set to play the Israeli Prime Minister during the Yom Kippur War in 1973. Guy Nattiv’s biopic is based on true events. Nicholas Martin wrote the film about the 19 days during the 1973 Yom Kippur War. The plot goes: Golda Meir (Israeli Prime Minister) is faced with the destruction of Israel and the safety of millions of lives. She must navigate the odds against her, a skeptical cabinet, and a complicated relationship with US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger (Liev Schreiber). Her decisions decide the nation’s fate and leave her a controversial legacy.

Golda’s cast includes Rami Heuberger (Schindler’s List), Camille Cottin (Call My Agent), Ellie Piercy (Black Mirror), Lion Ashkenzi (Foxtrot), Ed Stoppard (Judy), Ben Caplan, Rotem Keinan, Dominic Mafham, Dvir Benedek, Emma Davies, and Kit Rakusen. Nattiv said,

What I’m showing is the defeat of Israel, its downfall. I call it the ‘Requiem of Golda.” Everybody’s losing themselves, the heroes from ‘67, figures like Moshe Dayan, the big hero, the superman of Israel, he’s getting a slap.

He further said the movie is not “glorifying” anything about the Israeli narrative.

Golda is based on Nicholas Martin’s screenplay. Martin also produces along with Jane Hooks and Michael Kuhn. The film will be released to theaters on August 25th.
