Yossi & Jagger (2002) ST eng

Romance blooms between two soldiers (Knoller, Levi) stationed in an Israeli outpost on the Lebanese border. Yossi (Ohad Knoller) is a brooding commander who feels constrained by his role as a macho authority figure to conceal his sexuality from the conscripts under his command, while Jagger (Yehuda Levi, a popular Israeli heartthrob whose career was kickstarted by an appearance in the TV soap opera "Cheers for Love" in 2001) is one of his subordinates, a carefree guy who wants them to declare their love publicly by retiring from the Army and setting up house together. There's a now-famous scene, early in the movie, when Yossi and Jagger make love in the snow. Based on a true story, the film is warm-hearted but inconsequential, with some annoyingly jerky hand-held camera movements.
