Filmed in three countries: Israel, Czech Republic and the United Kingdom, ‘Try As They Might’ tells the story of the past, present and future of the Israeli national rugby union team.
Constructed as an extended match report with breaks into the past behind the team’s meteoric rise in recent years, the present challenges, defining moments, and highs and lows, it tells a fascinating story about nationalism, dedication and a great belief, against all odds.
Try as they might, they will always be this team that is shaped by turbulent Israel.
