One of international cinema’s most fearless and provocative filmmakers, Nadav Lapid has long been an outspoken critic of his birth country’s government policies, channeling a lifetime of fury and frustration into vital films like "Synonyms" and "Ahed’s Knee" that brim with righteous anger, spite, and shame.

In "Yes", Lapid once again takes vigorous critical aim at the Israeli government with a new approach: submission. In the days following October 7, Y., a jazz musician, and his wife Yasmin, a dancer, resolve to say yes to everything. Y. and Yasmin sell their bodies and souls to the highest bidder, surrendering themselves and their art to Israel’s social, political and military elite. Soon, Y. is entrusted with a mission of the utmost importance: to compose the music for a rousing, ruthless new national anthem.

Feverishly whirling between moments of satire, sincerity, and complete submission, "Yes" is a visceral, blistering indictment of modern Israel, and an essential addition to post-October 7 cinema.
