Fauda is an Israeli drama show. The show shows how after retiring from the Israel Defense Force, Doron (the lead character) is working in a vineyard. He gets roped back into active duty, though, upon learning that an enemy who Doron thought his unit had killed is still alive and plans on attending his brother’s wedding. As the show proceeds, it gets mysterious and interesting.
