ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Yossi, a closeted gay doctor, has his quiet world turned upside down when a woman from his past shows up. Their emotionally charged reunion causes Yossi to leave Tel Aviv and he finally wants to awaken from his emotional slumber. Filmmaker Eytan Fox's moving and empathetic sequel to YOSSI & JAGGER proves itself to be "an affecting and admirably unsentimental portrait of lost love" (Wall Street Journal).

A chance encounter with a middle-aged woman linked to his past shakes up his otherwise staid routine and sends him on a spontaneous pilgrimage to Tel Aviv. It is on the roads of southern Israel that he reignites the fire of his former self.
