"The Impossible Spy", released in the United States in 1987, tells the story based on real life events of Israeli national hero Eli Cohen. A diplomat with great love for his country, Cohen is given the impossible task of traveling to Damascus with the purpose of infiltrating the Syrian government as a secret double-agent. Cohen's family seeks for him to abandon his dangerous profession, but trouble begins brewing within his honorable conscience as he makes friends with a high-ranking Syrian government official, finding commonality between the two nations and their beliefs, even as he continues to work at his mission.
