The moving Yossi
& Jagger, at 65 minutes in length, has the focused impact and
emotional clarity of a fine short story. A multiple award winner (among
other prizes, Yossi & Jagger took a Best Actor honor for Ohad
Knoller at the 2003 Tribeca Film Festival), this unusual love tale, set
on a snowy Israeli-Lebanese border facing possible Hezbollah incursions,
has an unexpected sweetness and buoyancy. Knoller plays square-jawed,
no-nonsense Yossi, company commander of an Israeli Defense Forces unit
exhausted from sleepless nights anticipating an ambush. The handsome,
fun-loving Jagger (Yehuda Levi), nicknamed for his rock-star appeal, is
platoon leader and, unknown to all, Yossi's secret lover. The two
arrange trysts by going off together on missions, and while Jagger begs
Yossi to leave the army when the former's service is up, Yossi reminds
him that real life is not a romantic movie. Meanwhile, the platoon's
other characters and a trio of visitors--a colonel (Sharon Reginiano)
and his two female soldier-companions (Hani Furstenberg, Aya
Koren)--prove to be a lot of fun sorting out everything from menus to
love lives before their next, possibly lethal mission. Director Eytan
Fox's naturalistic touch, and ability to highlight the expansiveness of
mature love even in the most tragic and ironic of circumstances, is
something to marvel at. --Tom Keogh
