When a desolate Israeli outpost comes under siege after a surprise Egyptian attack, the surviving soldiers must choose between a hopeless battle, or follow the Doctor's plan that may save them, but comes with a great price.
The fighters at the pier deliberately surrender according to the plan proposed by the doctor and are transferred to a prison in Cairo, where they undergo harsh treatment. Company commander Shlomo concludes his testimony before the Agranat Commission, and Dr. Nahum emerges shaken from his interrogation by the Military Police Criminal Investigation Division.
