“All my life I have worked among men and they have treated me on my merits. I never knew a man who gave in to an argument of mine because I was a woman – except my husband”. Golda Meir, the only woman ever to be elected P.M. in Israel. Her term lasted between the war of Attrition and the 1973 Yom Kipur Wars, following which she resigned from office. The ultimate Jewish Mother, Golda Meir, was in fact the Israeli Iron Lady, neither more civilian nor more feminine in her decisions than her male counterparts. Golda Meir continued the power politics of most Israeli leaders and personified Israel’s unyielding stand.

Few judges anywhere have confronted the challenges faced by Aharon Barak, the former Chief Justice of Israel's Supreme Court. A survivor of the Holocaust, he knows firsthand the dangers posed by intolerance and xenophobia, and spent his career negotiating a delicate balance between Israel as a Jewish state and Israel as a democracy. Though often controversial, his rulings have become textbook cases for law students around the world. During his tenure Barak never spoke to the media. Now that he feels his time is running out, he has agreed to bare his soul - the soul of a judge - on camera for the very first time.
