(95 mins) Eighteen years old Jonathan leaves the home of his "refugee from the sixties" mother to live with his friend Mickey. But Mickey, a handsome, arrogant, bed-hopping youth is hardly ever at the apartment. Jonathan then meets Thomas who has returned to Israel after many years in New York. Thomas believes he has HIV, but he is hiding this fact. Thomas and Jonathan develop a hesitant relationship. Jonathan placed all his hope for happiness in his new friend. Thomas, distant and secretive, knows that their relationship is necessarily transient.
