In a clear-eyed fashion that would have been impossible in a film made by "outsiders", the plot details the conflict between native-born Israelis and the newly arrived European refugees. The various fears and prejudices of the adults are passed along to their children, upon whom director Hans Moshenson concentrates.

Filmed in Hebrew, The Wooden Gun is available in an English-subtitled version. Written by Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide See less
