Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
I Don't Give a Damn (Hebrew: לא שם זין, translit. Lo Sam Zayin) is a 1987 Israeli drama film directed by Shmuel Imberman, and starring Ika Zohar, Anat Waxman, and Shmuel Vilozni. It is based on a novel by Dahn Ben Amotz, and was adapted for the screen by Hanan Peled. The film, about a war veteran who needs to use a wheelchair after being shot in the stomach, is described by author Gönül Dönmez-Colin as an "excellent example of Israeli war cinema where young men are instructed to commit their body to injury and death and in fact abandon it in the name of the belief in the, as it were, sacred idea of the nation-state".
