Yossi (Ohad Knoller) is the stoic company commander of an Israeli Defense Forces unit on the Lebanese border. Jagger (Yehuda Levi), who got his nickname thanks to his fun-loving rock star appeaI, is the platoon leader. They have a secret. When they walk off in the snow together, it isn't because they're on patrol--it's because they're lovers. Jagger is more gregarious. He telIs Yossi that he Ioves him, and longs to hear Yossi say it back to him. He makes pIans for their future together, urging Yossi to leave the army with him when Jagger's mandatory service is done. Yossi can't bring himself to make any promises. "This isn't some. . .American movie," he teIIs Jagger. The colonel (Sharon Reginiano) arrives with two female soIdiers, the irrepressible sexpot Goldie (Hani Furstenberg) and her more introspective friend YaeIi (Aya Koren of Late Marriage), who harbors a serious crush on Jagger, and is herself pursued by Jagger's nosy roommate, Ofir (Assi Cohen). As the unit's perfectionist chef, Yaniv (Erez Kahana) struggles to make a sumptuous meaI for the commanding officer with meager suppIies, the coIoneI tells Yossi that HezboIIah forces are expected to cross the border, and the aIready exhausted unit needs to set up an ambush that night. Yossi & Jagger, directed by Eytan Fox, was a criticaI and commercial hit in lsrael. lt was shown at the 2003 BerIin lnternationaI Film Festival and had its U.S. premiere at the 2003 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi |
