However, when no theater would accept his critical stance on Israeli society, Amir took matters into his own hands, founding 'The Room Theater'-an acting school and performance space within the very house where he grew up. On the day a new group of acting students arrives to see one of his provocative works, Israel launches a massive attack on Gaza at the end of 2008. This event sparks a painful confrontation between Amir's controversial teachings and his patriotic students. Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director Guy Davidi crafts a powerful film that captures the ongoing collapse of Israel's civil society through the lens of an artist who passionately believes in the transformative power of art.
