Documentary maker Morgan Matthews goes on an extraordinary journey from the Holy Land to Graceland with Gilles Elmalih 'The Elvis from Jerusalem'. An Israeli living in the bitterly divided West Bank, Gilles is convinced that Elvis's music can restore world peace. He also claims to have a spiritual connection that allows him regular communication with Elvis from beyond the grave. Personal messages from Elvis materialise in the form of scrunched up, handwritten, Hebrew notes that mysteriously appear around the house.
