Jimmy and Elik meet in the army, a minute before checking out. He is an overweight corporal and she is a beautiful officer, but something clicks between them, They can talk. A shame it doesn’t stand a chance. They run into each other through the years in thecity, Facebook and such, but only a decade later, when they’re both 30 plus, wiser and harder, they really become friends. Everything is good, until love gets in the mix.

ELIK AND JIMMY
“Director Gudis Schneider and screenwriter Liat Elkayam created a witty, poignant and funny film. Contemporary and full of hope, very Tel Avivian, very Israeli. The screenplay, the direction, the excellent acting and the artistic design combine beautifully to create an uplifting romantic comedy” – HIFF jury
“‘Elik and Jimmy’ is not only a brave movie, but also a fun one, self aware and chock-full of homages to classical romantic comedies” – Ruta Kupfer – Calcalist
“A Charming And Romantic Mating Dance” – Eitan Weisz – Clear Head Cinema
