It's Now or Never: Israel's 60th Celebration
The resolution on the partition of Palestine was adopted by the UN on November 29th 1947. While all Israelis were dancing and celebrating, David Ben Gurion, the leader of the new Jewish entity, remained ambivalent - after 2000 years in the Diaspora the statehood was within reach, yet the threat of Arab armies invading the Jewish lands in Palestine was very real. Nevertheless Ben Gurion is convinced that declaring statehood right after the British terminate the mandate over Palestine, is immanent, and will not have any bearing on the Arab countries decision to invade Israel - they will invade anyway.
The film "It's Now or Never" depicts, step by step, the crucial and dramatic six months before the State of Israel was inaugurated. It shows the decision-making process and the fierce debate within the leadership and the political parties.
