An American Hippie in Israel 1972
An American Hippie in Israel is a crazed, psychedelic acid trip with a convoluted anti-war; an extremely rare film—even by today’s cult and psychotronic standards—which is receiving the deluxe treatment, courtesy of Grindhouse Releasing.

Mike (Asher Tzarfati) is an American hippie still reeling from his experiences in Vietnam, where he was forced to kill innocents. Traveling abroad, Mike ends up in Israel, quickly hitching a ride with Elizabeth (Lily Avidan), a rich girl enamored with the visitor's ideals of personal freedom and leisure, quickly accepting him as a lover. Meeting up with like-minded flower children, including Komo (Shmuel Wolf) and his girlfriend (Tzila Karney), Mike and Elizabeth embark on an adventure, taking in the sights and sounds of the country. Trouble arrives with the Painted Men, two mime-like enforcers out to make Mike's life miserable. When the goons slaughter the local hippie population, the foursome escape to an island, dreaming of a better life built around their beliefs. However, paradise isn't everything it's cracked up to be, with Mike and his friends eventually stranded, finding a pair of hungry sharks thwarting the ease of escape.
