Nira becomes increasingly obsessed with her 'mission' to find out all she can about the rapist. She discovers that although he behaved violently towards all the women, the press named him the Polite Rapist and described him as "well-mannered" since he forced his victims to spend hours with him, talking to them and raping them in turn.

Sure you're okay?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

Are you sure? We...

Take care.

What happened?

Did you fall?

Did you fall down

all these stairs?

Yes.

I'm okay.

The day after the rape,

I went to see my mother.

I said to her, "Mom,

"yesterday a man choked me

and raped me for hours in a field."

She was about to go out,

so she said,

"It's best not to talk about it.

Leave it."

I had that day's paper,

I showed her.

"College student raped yesterday."

And?

That was the last time

I ever turned to her.

Hi, sweetie.

Can't Daddy help you?

I'll drop by school

tomorrow morning,

before the bell rings.

Okay?

Good night.

Whenever my daughter

is at her dad's,

she needs something urgent

from me.

She just needs to know

you're there.

I guess so.

Have you been separated for long?

- From Avri?

We never really lived together.

We were together for a few months,

then Shir was born.

Rain.

Is your mother still alive?

She died 3 years

after my dad.

I didn't tell my parents at first.

I didn't want to worry them.

But a year later,

I thought it wouldn't be so bad,

because I told myself

I'd gotten over it.

So in honor of my birthday,

I told them.

My father had a heart attack

and died two weeks later.

Do you want something to drink?

Okay.

How about a beer?

- Okay.

Why did you go to the police?

I want to know

exactly what happened.

Step by step.

What about Beit Ariella library?

They have all the newspapers

from that time.

You could find

details about what happened.

Yes?

- Yes.

I'm sure...

you could find

everything you need.

After all, they wrote about me.

That's what I showed my mother.

And the gynecologist.

I wanted to check

I didn't get any sexual disease.

I said in a matter-of-fact way,

"I was raped,

I want you to examine me."

He said, "That's what you call it

when you sleep around?

I took the newspaper article out,

to prove it.

So what did he do?

He gave me some antibiotics.

Shall we go?

- Okay.

Let's go.

"Female police officer

among Polite Rapist's victims"

"The Polite Rapist attacks again,

this time - a college student"

"The Polite Rapist"

Hey, Lily, honey.

We need permits

from the Tul Karem checkpoint.

Hi, Lily. I saw the article

about you in the paper...

You've reached the voicemail of

050-5866486...

Hi, Lily.

I hope you're well.

I'm reading in newspapers from

back then, they quote

a confidential

police profile.

"The first, a woman of 30,

"whom the police didn't think

was 'cute'."

Then there's

a "pretty" social worker.

The third case,

"a woman of 35, very attractive."

I think it's...

the religious woman

I also met at the lineup.

The fourth case.

"24 years old, not particularly
