Based on his autobiographical book A Tale of Love and Darkness, this documentary tells the story of Israeli author Amos Oz, the society in which he lives and the connections between them. It follows the biographical, literary, political and philosophical aspects of Oz's personality. The film presents the Israeli narrative as reflected through his literary gaze and exposes his love- hate relationship with Europe which had rejected his family.
