Overview
- Imagine giving away a half a billion dollars! Lottie and Howard Marcus, an unpretentious Long Island, NY Jewish couple did just that. The pair, feeling that “a simple gift can change the world”, donated this unbelievable amount to Ben Gurion University in Israel. The gift was to be used for new water technology to inspire peace and climate action. This award-winning documentary includes interviews with Warren Buffett, Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Daniel Gordis, and the couple’s surviving daughter.
