Himmo Melech Yerushalaim) is a 1987 Israeli independent underground dramatic art film directed by Amos Guttman.

The protagonist is the enigmatic Himmo Perach (Ofer Shikartsi),[3] a mortally wounded and mutilated soldier and former charismatic philanderer who cannot speak (except when he asks to be shot, though nobody in the monastery has the courage to do so) or move as he had most of his limbs removed without anesthesia due to severe shortages.

A young and beautiful volunteer nurse, Hamutal Horowitz (Alona Kimhi), is romantically drawn to Himmo.

Jealousy amongst the other patients, all in love with Hamutal though receiving only professional care, soon begins to emerge.
