Synopsis:

From IMDb: “A zany, dark, & comedic portrait of everyday life for a unit of young, female Israeli soldiers. The Human Resources Office at a remote desert base serves as the setting for this cast of characters who bide their time pushing paper and battling in computer games, counting down the minutes until they can return to civilian life. Amidst their boredom and clashing personalities, issues of commitment – to friendship, love, and country – are handled with humor and sharp-edged wit.”

Poster: C+ / C+

Review: (#1-#2) There’s humor in both designs, but neither excels at the notion very well. The first poster establishes character without consequence. The second sets the setting, but in a slightly more humorous, but less familiar manner.

Trailer: B+

Review: A lot of dark comedies from outside the U.S. don’t have the biting humor in their trailers that would make them seem very interesting. this trailer goes a long way to establish its military malaise in fascinating and observationally astute ways. Could be quite fun.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
