Details: The Woman in White – Who Was Tamar Golan and Why Is She Absent from History Books?
Was she a Mossad agent, the lover of an Egyptian colonel, or an African ruler? How did she influence Israel’s peace agreement with Egypt?
The woman who dressed in white and pulled the strings behind the scenes of Israel’s foreign policy invented a different kind of diplomacy. She relied on personal relationships, eye contact, and managing a political-cultural salon in Paris. She succeeded where official channels failed, yet her name never entered the official records.
After her death, the film’s director encountered her private archive—diaries, recordings, and photographs. With their help and that of her friends, the film takes us into her secrets.
