First Zionist Bunny
What does it take to become a sex symbol in Israel today? In a country where women have long been soldiers and prime ministers, is being a Playboy Bunny really the ultimate in post-feminist success? Or is it a contradiction in terms and foreign to the Zionist dream?

These are some of the questions at the heart of this deceptively intelligent yet entertaining documentary that follows a handful of bikini-clad contestants, culled from hundreds of applicants, as they vie for the coveted role of the first Israeli Playboy Channel hostess. 

The film displays its share of flesh, but perhaps the most interesting commentary comes from their parents, all of whom possess sufficient wisdom to recognize they are powerless to intervene.

Australian premiere.
