15 Years

Breaking Glass Pictures (a globally-connected media company that focuses on finding cutting edge independent films in every genre from around the world) brings to DVD/VOD on 4/28/20 this LGBT film about two Israeli men, the young Dan (Udi Persi) ready for the next step in their relationship and the mature alpha partner Yoav ( Oded Leopold) who can't get over his past family and settling down demons. With most male gay themed films requiring a good female friend, the beautiful Ruti Asarsai (Alma) does a nice job working amongst the guys. Unfortunately, it is her pregnancy (from someone) that turns Yoav against Dan and all of their relationships. While the story is plausible, the English subtitles move way too fast, and director/writer Yuval Hadadi falls victim to wearing too many hats. He continually presents numerous scenes where absolutely nothing happens and/or is said, Yoav's character isn't explained clearly enough to make the viewer want to care about him, and Alma's pregnancy is quickly pushed to the backstory. The film runs 1 1/2 hours, but felt like "15 YEARS".
