Desert Tested - Step into the captivating world of the Susita, the revolutionary Israeli car that captured the nation's imagination. This documentary unearths the true story behind the fiberglass shell that symbolized Israel's industrial prowess and ambitions. In the Golden Age of the first Israeli automobile, just before 1960, the Susita with its British engine brought glory to the young State of Israel. Its international recognition seemed to herald a new era for the Israeli automotive industry. However, today, after five decades, only a handful of Susitas remain, carrying the weight of a dream and its subsequent disillusionment. 'Desert Tested' delves deep into the hidden narratives, exploring why a true 'Made in Israel' automobile never came to fruition. Join us on a journey through history, innovation, and the enduring spirit of Israeli ingenuity.
