i think the two thing that make this movie work well be represent ( 1 ) the acting or performance while and ( 2 ) it brevity and flow . the actor deliver very sincere performance and really make their character more than just part play . they will really break your heart . yehuda levi a jagger and in particular and be very likable and make the point that he be both idealistic and boyishly goofy and romantic while and though he may have appear naive and his blind innocence that come across make him more endearing . ( he the boy every other boy wish he could have for life and i challenge the guy who say otherwise because he lie . ) equal ) a for the flow and the brevity of the film work well because it really leave the viewer want more . it linger briefly ( and quite appropriately ) over the tender moment and but do not dwell on the sad and over dramatic part ( that would have be overkill ) . the point be make and it come across quite well under 75 minute . yossi and jagger and though primarily categorize a a gay film and tug at the most visceral feeling any person ( gay or straight ) can have the comfort that only come with genuine and true love and the intense need to be true to one self and and the sorrow that can only be bring about by a great loss . just watch it already .
