synopsis
Coming of age in Tel Aviv in the 1950s, the boys Benz, Momo and Yudaleh are deeply affected by Elvis Presley's music and are just as sexually overheated as teens in the States. Momo is a charismatic sort who attracts the attention of the lovely girl Nili. However, after he makes her pregnant, it is Benz who arranges for an abortion and confesses his love to her. During the summer break, Benz and Nili are a couple. However, once the school year begins again, Momo returns to the center of Nili's life. Despite this, the boys have an easy camaraderie, as they seek sexual encounters with an older nymphomaniac and later with a prostitute.
