It then examines the negotiations for the first bilateral treaty between Israel and Egypt in 1975, the events surrounding Israel's rescue of hostages in Entebbe in 1976, Rabin's tense relationship between newly elected US President Jimmy Carter, and his subsequent resignation after financial scandal involving his wife Leah. The movie also explores Ambassador Avner's decision to work for Menachem Begin after his surprise election as Prime Minister in 1977. It looks at the drama behind Anwar Sadat's historic visit to Jerusalem, the Camp David Accords, Begin's difficult relationship between President Carter and the tense relations that arose between him and President Reagan over the 1982 Lebanon War.

Starring the voices of Michael Douglas as Yitzhak Rabin and Christoph Waltz as Menachem Begin, The Prime Ministers: Soldiers and Peacemakers is full of emotion and rich history with rare, never before seen photos and film footage.
- Love and Jealousy make strange bedfellows. They cannot dwell together in harmony, so it is not surprising that Minnie got dreadfully jealous when Jack went to town and accepted an invitation to supper at Stanley's Restaurant with his friend. "Doc," and his fiancée, a charming, sprightly little creature who, as a clever hostess, paid due attention to "Doc's" guest. There was nothing unusual in this, but some busybody wrote Minnie all about it, and of course did not fail to express her own opinions and surmises. Jack's uncle, a benevolent, sympathetic old scholar, seems to be the confidant and ever ready haven of consolation for the young folk. Minnie goes to the uncle and shows him her friend's letter and tells him what a wretch Jack is. Jack returns home and Minnie will not have anything to do with him. Jack tries to explain, but no use; he gives up in despair and goes to his uncle and tells him his trouble. The old fellow thinks while he consoles him, and gets a happy idea. He writes "Doc" Glover of the trouble and tells him to bring his fiancée and spend the day in the country at his home, writes a letter to the old man explaining the circumstances of Jack's supper at the restaurant in town. A few days afterward "Doc" and his sweetheart arrive at the uncle's home and the good man tells them he will advise Jack to make love to Kitty, "Doc's" sweetheart, and at the same time advise Minnie to make love to "Doc," so they can make each other still more jealous. The plan is readily entered into by the two young abettors, and at once set the plan in operation. It works admirably. Jack is wrought up to a great pitch, and Minnie can scarcely contain herself with pique. She can stand it no longer, and makes her way to her old friend, Jack's uncle, and while she is sobbing on his shoulder Jack is called in by his uncle from a side room, into which he took refuge when he saw Minnie coming in. He comes forward and while Minnie momentarily lifts her head from the old man's shoulder, Jack takes his uncle's place, and when Minnie lifts her head which was slowly dropped into place on, as she thinks, her friend's kindly heart she looks up into the face of Jack. The old gentleman smiles as he sees Minnie on the shoulder of his nephew, and then "Doc" and Kitty rush in and tell them how happy they are because Minnie and Jack have "made up," and then they tell her of their engagement and Kitty shows her ring.
