Hide and Seek (Hebrew: מחבואים, Machboim) is an Israeli drama film, directed by Dan Wolman. It was written by Avi Cohena and Wolman and had a limited theatrical release in 1980. The film stars Gila Almagor, Benyamin Armon, Chaim Hadaya, Efrat Lavie, Rahel Shor and Doron Tavory.
The movie is the first Israeli film ever to address themes of homosexuality. The film is set in Jerusalem during the British Mandate period in 1946, and along with homosexuality, it also seriously examines issues of nationalism and bravery.
