The assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin on November 4, 1995, as he left a peace rally in support of the Oslo Accords plunged the country into mourning. That the gunman was a 25-year old Israeli opposed to the peace accords and whose aggression was encouraged by the rhetoric of homegrown Israeli groups further complicated the event's fallout. Rabin: Shivah in November documents the assassination's aftermath as it occurred, recording the chaos surrounding the shooting, the spontaneous acts of public mourning and the various political and personal responses of Israel's leaders and citizens.
