Israeli film poster for Yossi & Jagger (2002)
Record status
Individual type · partial
Period
2002
This film poster promotes the 2002 Israeli military drama Yossi & Jagger. Designed to highlight the central conflict of the film, the poster juxtaposes the harsh realities of a military outpost in Lebanon with the intimate romantic relationship between the two lead characters, Yossi and Jagger, played by Ohad Knoller and Yehuda Levi.
The visual composition features the actors dressed in IDF military uniforms, including fatigues and weapons, yet their posture and gazes convey a marked sense of sensitivity and romantic closeness. By contrasting traditional symbols of Israeli masculinity and military service with expressions of homosexual love, the poster reflects the film's challenge to deep-seated social taboos. The design includes text in Hebrew and English and was produced in multiple versions for international film festivals to emphasize universal themes of intimacy.
This example is printed on chromo paper with dimensions of 68x50 cm, supplied in a rolled format.
