**About the Film:**
How did a football match between enemies become a turning point in history?
Twenty-five years after the Holocaust, against insurmountable emotional and
political barriers and threats of terror, Israel national team and German
Borussia Munchegladbach met in a match whose importance marked the beginning
of the normalization between Israel and Germany. Through interviews with
former German and Israeli footballers, historians, and diplomats, along with
rare archival materials, the film examines the power of personal friendships
to bring down the wall between nations, and of football, to pave the way
between adversaries.
