119 Bullets+Three

On Purim 1994, Dr. Baruch Goldstein fired 119 bullets at a group of Arab worshippers at the Cave of the Patriarchs. The horrible massacre motivated Prime Minister Rabin’s government to ban the “Kach” and “Kahane Chai” movements. However, Israel’s extreme right reorganized immediately to oppose the peace process, culminating with Yigal Amir shooting three bullets, killing Prime Minister Rabin, on November 4th 1995. Work on this film began a year and a half before the assassination. Originally an attempt to examine the danger of civil war in Israel, it culminates with the assassination that brought the internal conflict in Israeli society to a  peak.
