Based on Amos Oz's novel Panther in the Basement, this uplifting family-friendly film captures the unlikely bond between a kindly British soldier and a spirited boy. Set in 1947 Palestine and the birth of Israel, 11-year-old Proffy Liebowitz and his friends want nothing more than the departure of occupying British forces. While out after curfew, Proffy is seized by British Sergeant Dunlop (Molina). The chance encounter leads to a deepening relationship among ostensible foes.
