Golda (2023)
Golda is a ticking-clock thriller set during the tense 19 days of the Yom Kippur War in 1973.
Oscar winner Helen Mirren stars as Israeli prime minister Golda Meir. Faced with the potential of Israel’s complete destruction, she must navigate overwhelming odds, a sceptical cabinet, and a complex relationship with US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger (nine-time Emmy nominee Liev Schreiber, aka Ray Donovan).
Directed by Oscar winner Guy Nattiv (Skin), Golda was nominated for a 2024 Oscar for Best Makeup and Hairstyling for Mirren’s transformation.
