缠绵悱恻20年，金钱之爱根据以色列移民在美国追逐梦想的真人真事改编。故事开始于1973年的TelAviv，在那Izek在脏乱差的环境下成长，街头混混经常光顾的地下赌场就开在他家酒吧的后面。这所赌场是罪恶的温床，逐渐侵蚀着Izek和他的家人。最后迫不得已，举家迁至洛杉矶。为了追逐梦想重头来过，Izek开始了经商之路，购置地产，经营一家汽车修理厂。他春风得意，处处受到幸运女神的眷顾，尤其是当他与Aline坠入爱河之后。但是好景不长，Izek一直想逃离的罪恶一直如影随形，追随他到每一个角落..在视听表达上，导演有意弱化戏剧元素。数字修复让历史影像焕发活力，全彩上色增强画面细节，画面呈现拓展表现空间。但技术使用十分克制，整体色调保持历史本色。整体表现注重精神价值。色彩选择体现历史责任感，声音设计追求简约风格。　　Spanningovertwodecades,"FortheLoveofMoney"followsthetrueaccountofanIsraeliimmigrantwhosearchesforhispieceoftheAmericandream.ThestorybeginsinTelAvivin1973,whereayoungIzekisraisedinaseedy,gangsterfilledillegalcasinothatoperatesbehindhisfamily'sbar.Thecasinoisahavenforunsavorycharacterswhoseektocorrupthimtotheirwayoflife.Whentheviolenceandcrimefindsitswaytohimandhisfamily,Izek(YudaLevi)andhisfamilyrelocatetoLosAngeles.Hopingtostartanew,hepursueshisambitionstobecomeayoungentrepreneurbydevelopingsmallbusinesses,purchasingrealestate,andrunninganautorepairshop.SuccessseemstofindhimateveryturnandafterfallinginlovewiththebeautifulAline(DelphineChaneac),luckseemstobeonhisside.However,itisn'tlongbeforetheworldofcrimethatIzektriedtoescapesolongagocontinuestodoggedlyfollowhimeverystepoftheway...
