In Golda's Shoes  a documentary movie

1. Golda was the first woman in the world to be elected Prime minister in democratic elections.
2. Prior moving to Palestine, Golda underwent an abortion because she felt "her Zionist obligations
simply did not leave room for a child".
3. Just before the outbreak of the war of independence, Golda managed to raise the equivalent
of 2 billion dollars in a matter of weeks. Ben-Gurion credited her as "The Jewish woman who single
handedly saved the state in its most critical time".
4. During the Yom Kippur War Golda prevented Secretary of Defense, Moshe Dayan, from using
Israel's Atomic capabilities.
5. After the Yom Kippur war Golda contemplated suicide....

The more we learn about Golda’s life, we understand how much we don’t know about her. There are many unasked and unanswered questions waiting to be revealed. In order to uncover the wealth of information that seems to have fallen between the cracks, left out of history books, we need access to stories and footage never heard or seen before.

Whether you are intrigued by Golda's remarkable life as a woman and as a leader, feel a connection to Israel, or just can’t get enough history, "In Golda's shoes" is the film for you. This project is an Indie production aimed to be screened on Television and Film Festivals in Israel and around the world. But we need your help in order to make it happen.

We invite you to take an active part in the making of a movie.

We encourage you to visit our site frequently, view recently shot footage, comment on our Blog and contribute any relevant information. Whether a photo taken by a family member tucked away in the attic, a document you inherited from your grandparents or a story you heard from your parents over dinner – it may seem trivial, but anything and everything may be a valuable piece in the puzzle.

Israeli history is recent and personal. Almost everyone has a once or twice removed connection to the making of this history. A generation of memories is passing. Help us recapture the personal moments, the ones history books forget.
