Footnote - Hebrew
The story of a great rivalry between a father and son, both eccentric
professors in the Talmud department of Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The son
has an addictive dependency on the embrace and accolades that the establishment
provides, while his father is a stubborn purist with a fear and profound
revulsion for what the establishment stands for, yet beneath his contempt lies a
desperate thirst for some kind of recognition. The Israel Prize, Israel's most
prestigious national award, is the jewel that brings these two to a final,
bitter confrontation.
