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. (imdb)

Here are some of the things that make Talya Lavie's debut feature awesome: She deftly snatches the military genre away from its usual male dominance, and ducks a reverse Bechdel test. By writing "around" the film, she creates deep, rounded characters, with a psychological realism rarely found in comedies - which makes them all very human and sympathetic. Her sexual ethics are perfect, the acting is deadpan and well polished, and most importantly, I can hardly remember seeing anything this funny.

I liked the tone and there were some really great understated funny moments. I especially liked the main character's snarky little comments. The only thing that brought this movie down a bit for me was the pacing. It dragged at times and that clashes with the comedy. It's still a very likeable movie.
