Story:


Yossi (Ohad Knoller) commands a troop of soldiers in the snow-covered mountains near Lebanon. In secrecy, he leads a homosexual relationship with his second-in-command, Lior (Yehuda Levi), who is called Jagger by everyone for his rock star-like handsomeness. As they have little privacy at the post, they have to go on patrol together to get the opportunity for some sex.

One day, a colonel (Sharon Raginiano) arrives at the base with two females, one of whom he immediately has sex with in the bunker. The other one, Yaeli (Aya Koren, credited as Aya Steinovitz), is very interested in Jagger, while she refuses the sexual advances of Ofir (Assi Cohen), who tries to make clear to her that Jagger is not particularly interested in her.













The colonel is there to supervise a nighttime ambush, of which Yossi is resentful because of the full moon, and also because he fears for Jagger's safety. And indeed Jagger is fatally injured that night, dying in the arms of his lover, who only now is able to articulate his love for him.














At the funeral reception at Lior's parents' house, Jagger's mother mistakes Yaeli for his girlfriend. She laments that she knew very little about her son, including his favorite song, which Yossi is able to tell her.
