A cult Israeli teen comedy. - JW

Bentzi, Momo, and Yuda'leh are three teenage boys growing up in 1950s Israel, which is not much different from 1950s America if you believe what you see in the film.

Of course they are obsessed with one thing: sex. Bentzi is interested in the beautiful Nili, but she prefers his friend Momo. Bentzi is working delivering ice to people when he comes across a voluptuous nympho.

For some reason he leaves his job and gets his friends, who are promptly invited inside and divested of their virginity in an explicit softcore sex scene.

Momo goes first, then the obese Yuda'leh. Before Bentzi can have his turn the nympho's sailor boyfriend suddenly returns from the sea and chases the boys away, and Yuda'leh is forced to run away naked.

The boys next visit a prostitute who services each in turn; the experience causes Bentzi to vomit. With all this experience under his belt, Momo seduces Nili and impregnates her--and turns his back on her when she gives him the news. It's up to Bentzi to borrow money and sell his bicycle to get money for an abortion.

The First Teen Sex Comedy

I recently found out that Lemon Popsicle is considered to be the world's first teen sex comedy. It helped start all those ones in the 1980s like Porky's. Anyways Lemon Popsicle if anything is more of a drama with a few comedic moments. If you know this you will enjoy the film more.

Lemon Popsicle stars Yifatch Kitzur as Benji the nice guy, Jonathan Sagall is the good looking one who plays Bobby, and Zachi Noy plays Hughie the Fat one who honestly is just there for comedic relief.

One day a beautiful new girl named Niki moves too town and Benji immediately falls in love with her. But she likes Bobby just because he is better looking. Eventually Bobby gets Niki pregnant and when he finds out he wants nothing to do with her. And Benji being the nice guy pays for Niki's abortion and takes care of her. She invites him to her 18th birthday party and she is in the arms of Bobby leading Benji to be very sad in the end.

I definitely recommend this film it is very relatable and realistic.
