About this event
We are happy to invite you to share with us a morning that will be all about history, nostalgia, Aliyah, and duty to the Israeli ideal.
Gvahim is proud to be hosting a special Movie & Museum event at the Lehi Museum in Tel Aviv, with a special screening of the movie “Shamir, His Way.”
Gvahim is putting together this special event as a tribute to Yitzhak Shamir Z”L, the father of our Chairman Emeritus, Yair Shamir, a founding Board Member, and a main partner in the organization of this event.
Yitzhak Shamir, Israel’s 7th Prime Minister, was a lifelong Zionist leader who fought for the Land of Israel and advocated Aliyah & immigration to Israel. He defended the Jewish Diaspora while dedicating himself to protecting Jewish people worldwide. This movie tells his unique and inspiring story through interviews with key figures such as former Prime Ministers Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert, and former heads of Israel’s Secret Agencies such as Ya’akov Peri and Shabtai Shavit. Together with the political and diplomatic outlook, the movie also shares a more personal view of Yitzhak Shamir, the man, through interviews with some of Shamir’s close friends, colleagues, and family members.
Come and join us in celebration of the life and merits of one of Israel’s most renowned leaders!

About the Movie:
Shamir was one of the most consequential yet enigmatic prime ministers of Israel. He was the head of the Lehi underground organization. Years later he served as the head of the most elite and secret unit in Israeli Secret Intelligence Service – the Mossad before entering politics. His actions have impacted the entire Middle East and far beyond it for decades. He was a lifelong Zionist leader who fought for the Land of Israel and advocated Aliyah & immigration to Israel. He defended the Jewish Diaspora, while dedicating himself to protecting Jewish people worldwide. His profound secrets are revealed for the first time in these ground-breaking films.
Shamir, His Way has received Israel’s Prime Minister Award for commemorating the legacy of Yitzhak Shamir. The award was granted during an official ceremony hosted by The Prime Minister of Israel Naftali Bennett and The President of Israel Isaac Herzog.
An official state ceremony will be held in Israel on July 10, 2022 to commemorate 10 years to his passing.
About the Museum:
The Lehi Museum, the home and exhibits of “Lehi” – “Fighters for Israel Freedom” of the 1940’s, is located in the heart of the colorful Tel Aviv neighborhood – Florentine. It is housed in the original building where Abraham “Yair” Stern, the leader of Lehi, was caught and murdered by the British. The evidence at the scene of the murder illustrates the dramatic events that led to Yair’s murder in February of 1942.
The Story of Lehi and its courageous operations against the British rule during the Mandate Period in Eretz Israel are shown on two floors of fascinating exhibits, with articles on display
