This film delves into the persona of Amos Oz, opening a rare window of opportunity to experience the world as observed through the eyes of one of Israel's greatest authors; a man of whom it has been said, knows Israeli society inside out, especially since he is an outsider himself. The journey takes us through his biography, A Tale of Love and Darkness, his personal conversations, his meetings with readers here and abroad, and archival material and cinematic imagery of his writing.
