Storyline
The theme is the founding of the state of Israel. The action begins on a ship filled with Jewish immigrants bound for Israel who are being off loaded on Cyprus. An Intelligence officer succeeds in getting them back on board their ship only to have the harbor blocked by the British with whom they must negotiate. The second part of the film is about the situation in Israel as independence is declared and most of their neighbors attack them. Written by John Vogel <jlvogel@comcast.net>

Trivia
Sal Mineo actively sought the role of Dov Landau despite being told that he did not look Jewish or anything like the character. See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When Paul Newman gets out of the car, his head hits the corner of the door and he touches his forehead. The passenger, Eva Marie Saint, hardly held from laughing. See more »Quotes
