Avanti Popolo

"Avanti Popolo", a 1986 Israeli drama film directed by Rafi Bukai, follows Egyptian privates Khaled (Salim Daw) and Rassan (Suhel Haddad) as they wander through the Sinai Desert in June 1967, seeking to cross the Suez Canal after the Six-Day War. Along the way, they encounter a dead UN soldier with whiskey bottles, which they use to quench their thirst, and join an IDF patrol that takes on surrealistic qualities.
