Big Bad Wolves

In an isolated forest in Israel, three children engage in a carefree game of hide-and-seek, filled with laughter and joy. Their happiness, however, is short-lived as the dense foliage around them conceals a lurking danger.

One of the children, a little girl, seeks refuge from the game in an abandoned house, unaware of the impending threat. This seemingly safe haven quickly transforms into a scene of horror as she is captured by a shadowy figure.

Detective Micki, fueled by urgency, directs suspicion towards Dror, a well-respected schoolteacher, and arrests him despite the absence of solid evidence. The rush to judgment sets a tense atmosphere as the community watches closely.

As the arrest unfolds, a bystander records the alarming events on their smartphone, unwittingly uploading the video to YouTube. This moment captures the escalating tension and turns the incident into a public spectacle.

The investigation takes a grim turn when a mysterious caller guides the police to the horrifying discovery of the girl's lifeless body in an open field. The gruesome nature of the crime sends shockwaves through the community.

The family of the victim lays her to rest, adhering to Jewish customs, amidst a somber atmosphere characterized by shared sorrow and loss. This moment embodies the profound impact of the tragedy on the community.

In the wake of the investigation's failures, Detective Micki is stripped of his badge, marking a significant shift in his career. Undeterred, he conceives a dark plan to abduct Dror in an attempt to extort a confession.

Gidi, the father of the murdered girl, becomes increasingly consumed by grief and paranoia, convinced of Dror's guilt. His pain drives him to consider kidnapping Dror, adding a personal vendetta to the investigation.

Before Gidi can execute his plan, Detective Micki manages to seize Dror from the streets, intensifying the already volatile situation. Gidi swiftly turns the tables by abducting both men and bringing them to a secluded, abandoned house.

In the grim hiding place, Gidi and Micki engage in a harrowing psychological and physical struggle, targeting the vulnerable Dror. As their conflict escalates, Micki begins to doubt Dror's guilt while Gidi's resolve only intensifies.

Gidi's father, a military veteran, unexpectedly stumbles upon the captives while delivering soup to his son. This chance encounter inadvertently leads him on a journey to uncover the truth about his granddaughter's fate.

In a moment of desperation, Micki seizes a rusty nail, leveraging it to pressure Dror into revealing the location of the girl's severed head. This sinister tactic lays the groundwork for a potential escape.

Upon reconnecting with local law enforcement, Micki is devastated to learn that his own daughter is missing, adding personal stakes to the already tumultuous investigation. This revelation shakes him to his core.

Driven by confusion and pain, Gidi retraces Dror's hints but comes up empty-handed. His frustrations boil over as he confronts Dror once more, leading to an explosive moment of violence.

Officer Rami thoroughly searches Dror's home for evidence but leaves empty-handed. Unbeknownst to him, a shocking secret rests concealed behind a false wall, where Micki's daughter lies unconscious, her fate uncertain.
