They would need to use the services of the flag carrier, El Al, and use the celebrations occasioned by a round figure of years since the Argentinean Independence, to elude the authorities and take the war criminal out. The logistics of the operation is indeed more than a reason to ponder over the plan, at times it seems impossible to pull off, given that army airplanes would be unable to reach that far – although they did fly all the way to Entebbe, in another awesome Israeli operation. This is only for a while and due in large part to doubts that the real Eichmann has been found, the difficulty of getting him out if the information proves correct and the calamity that would follow a botched attempt. Lothar Hermann understands who the father of the boy is, informs the Jewish community and this information is related to the Mossad headquarters in Israel, where it is however considered that they need to concentrate their limited resources on the present and not the past. In the same region in Argentina lives Lothar Hermann, aka Peter Strauss, with Sylvia Hermann, a Jewish girl that was raised Catholic, who becomes close to Klaus and invites him to her house. In Argentina, he lives with his son, Klaus, and his wife, Vera, and he is celebrated by other fascist escapees, entertaining with them dreams of bringing again to light the vicious fascist ideas. The murderer is portrayed by Ben Kingsley, playing the opposite of the character that has brought him the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role- Gandhi, the epitome of peaceful and non –violent methods.Īdolph Eichmann was the mastermind of the Final Solution and one of the most wanted of the World War II criminals that has managed to escape and run to South America, where he lived under a false name. It is based on the true story of a Mossad operation that took Adolph Eichmann out of Argentina, where he had found refuge and was already engaged in developing a community of Nazis.
