The moving confession of Julie Herzl - the forgotten wife of the great leader, during the historical period when his vision was formed. She unfolds a desperate love for her husband, on the verge of insanity, leading to the tragic end which befell also the rest of her family. The sionist wthos chose to eliminate the memory of Julie Herzl. Adi Etzion brings her back to life and tells her story.

Review from Yediot Tel Aviv by Mart Perchomosvsky: "When watching Adi Etzion-Zak one understands the meaning of the term "Stage Presence". she is simply magnetizing, hypnotizing, and also reveals a polished technique. The show excels in all aspects. Etzion has located an engrossing story that singles out the human from the political, without falling into cheap gossip. She has formed it into a convincing and sompact show. A performance of high quality and full of dedication."
