Description

In collaboration with the Prosserman JCC, this series showcases the excellence of Israeli cinema, fostering cultural connection.

Israel’s Biggest Box Office Hit of 2022

In this romantic comedy by Erez Tadmor (Magic Men and A Matter of Size), Moti Bernstein is the son every mother wants and the student every Rabbi loves to teach. And he is not bad looking either…. In search of a wife, he meets the best girls in the Jewish Orthodox world. However, he only falls for the one girl he can never have, his sister’s friend Nechama, who hails from a Moroccan Mizrahi family—a taboo for his established Ashkenzi community. Moti will be forced to go out on a limb in the most unexpected and unusual of ways.

Reviews “A Haredi take on Romeo and Juliet with plenty of laughs.”
— Jewish International Film Festival, Australia
“Inspired by classic Bourekas comedies, Erez Tadmor’s (A Matter of Size) new film is a sharp, hilarious critique of the business of love and marriage in the Haredi community.”
