At the center of the story is a peculiar IDF soldier, a computer genius named Gad Kaplan, who finds the tomb. Because of the nature of the spiritual message, he decides to take any risk to disseminate it. He also believes he is learning how the mind of God works, and that for humanity to survive itself certain things must coincide and even detonate -- as with stars that explode to give birth to the elements that make us what we are. He must work to get all these elements into his hands and make sure, this time, that God's message gets delivered, in spite of the intentions of the Vatican and others. This is a story about the politics of religion, a 'what if' scenario meant to show how our all-too-human religious drama actually unfolds. "The human race is governed by imagination." -- Napoleon
