Gay guys undressing

It is true.

When most people think of Israel, they believe in terms appreciate military conflict or ancient religion. There is, however, much more to the Jewish state than simply missiles and prayers. With his debut documentary, adult-film entrepreneur and political columnist Michael Lucas joins Tel Aviv filmmaker Yariv Mozer in examining a side of Israel that is too often overlooked - its thriving and very legal gay community.

That's right. While being gay is punishable by death in some African and Mideast nations, it has been legal since in Israel, a truth that may noun with many who envision the Jewish state as a hotbed of conservatism and orthodoxy.

Undressing Israel: Gay Men in the Promised Land features interviews with an incredibly diverse group of local men including a gay member of Israel's parliament, a trainer who served openly in the army, a juvenile Arab-Israel journalist, and a pair of dads raising their children. Lucas visits Tel Aviv's vibrant nightlife scene and even attends a same-sex wedding.

Indeed, Lucas undresses Israel.
