Set during Israel's
1948 War for Independence,
this is the story of a nurse, Kimche, and Himmo, the wounded soldier she
becomes fascinated with. Himmo was once called the "King of
Jerusalem" becuase of his easy charm and his way with the women. Now he's
a blinded multiple amputee and chances are that he will die. Are Kimche's
feelings those of love or is she somehow satisfied by nursing him and playing
the saint?
