Synopsis:
Originally titled Hiuch Ha'Gdu, the Israeli-made Smile of the Lamb is set along the battle-torn West Bank. Military governor Col. Moshe Katzman (Makram Khouri) tries to flush out some fugitive PLO terrorists by hanging the rotting, stinking carcass of a dead donkey in a village square. Israeli doctor UriLaniado (Rami Danon) forgets his animosity towards the PLO and, out of compassion, cuts the carcass down. For disobeying Khouri's orders, Danon becomes as much a fugitive as the Palestinians. While in hiding, Uri befriends Arab hermit Hilmi (Tuncel Kurtiz), whose adopted son is a member of the PLO.
When the boy is killed, Uri offers himself as a hostage, willing to remain with the hermit until the Israelis leave the West Bank.
