Synopsis by Dan Pavlides

This color documentary of Israel begins in Jerusalem before traveling to Tel Aviv, Haifa, Ashdod and the Dead and Red Seas and returning to Jerusalem. King David's Tomb, The Wailing Wall, the Dead Sea Scrolls and Mount Scopus University's 50th anniversary celebration are featured. A conversation with former premier David Ben-Gurion, archaeologist Yidal Yadin and a performance by the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra precede a ceremony where war hero Moshe Dayan pins medals on recent Israeli Air Force graduates.
