For the Love of Money (2012)

"Traversing the tumultuous timeline of two decades, 'For the Love of Money' narrates the true tale of Izek, an Israeli immigrant passionately seeking his slice of the American dream. The tale commences in the shadowy underbelly of Tel Aviv in 1973, where Izek's youth is shaped amidst the grimy glamour of an illegal casino, cloaked behind his family's bar. This seedy world, teeming with nefarious characters, seeks to mold Izek in its image, pushing him towards a life of crime. When the tendrils of violence creep dangerously close to his loved ones, Izek (Yuda Levi) and his family uproot their lives and replant them in the sun-drenched city of Los Angeles. Here, Izek embarks on his journey to become an entrepreneur, dabbling in small businesses, dabbling in real estate, and operating an auto repair shop. Fortune seems to dance with him at every turn, and his heart finds a home with the enchanting Aline (Delphine Chaneac). But the past is a relentless pursuer, and the world of crime that Izek sought to forsake trails him like a shadow. His newfound peace is disrupted by a volatile gangster (James Caan), his criminal cousin (Oded Fehr), and a formidable Colombian drug lord (Steven Bauer). Izek, mired in his struggles to wipe his slate clean, finds that the promises of quick money and power constantly tempt those around him. As violence engulfs his world, he is left with no choice but to face his demons head-on. 'For the Love of Money' is a gripping chronicle of crime, family, love, and loss. It paints the alluring and perilous allure of easy money, and the sacrifices made in its pursuit. Based on the life of executive producer Izek Shomof, it's a powerful exploration of the lengths one man will go to protect those he holds dear, even if it means a return to his old, dangerous ways."
