About Eagles
A series based on Yoram Kaniuk's “Eagles” and “Carcasses.” Yossi Pollak and Yehoram Gaon play a pair of elderly men, former members of the Palmach, who spend their days at Malka's café. One day, an accident occurs in front of the café where they are sitting, and it turns out that the victim is Tamara, their love from the 1940s. Tamara's death shocks the two, and they decide to take revenge. They use their skills as skilled fighters from a war that ended 60 years ago and murder dozens of young people and other characters with elegant professionalism. Dina, Tamara's daughter, begins to dig into her mother's past following her death. Her appearance brings up old tensions and a big secret that threatens the long-standing friendship between Ephraim and Moshe.
