Max Baer's Last Right Hook

Overview

It's wartime 1942, and hapless entrepreneur Yaakov Gendelmayer has an idea for a morale-boosting publicity stunt: bring Jewish former heavyweight boxer Max Baer to Palestine to fight a German boxer, in an effort to recreate Baer's legendary bout against Hitler's darling, Max Schmeling. Sixty years later, Gendelmayer's son comes to Israel to meet old-timers and find out the truth about Max Baer's last right hook.
