Shtisel

The world premiere of the much anticipated new season.

The beloved Shtetel family returns - four years from where we last saw them; Akiva (Michael Aloni) is now a father and thriving artist; still, he is a cause for concern for his father Shulem (Dovale Glickman). Giti Weiss (Neta Riskin), together with her husband Lippe (Zohar Strauss) run a successful neighborhood restaurant and are dealing with their grown children; Ruchami (Shira Haas) and Yossale.  Ruchami is learning to adjust to married life and the challenges of becoming a mother, while Yossale has reached the age where he needs to consider getting married, using gregarious matchmaker, Menucha (Hana Laslo), though he seems to prefer to focus on his studies. Yet when he meets Shira Tzibulnick (Reef Neeman) a beautiful, incredibly smart young woman, his life is no longer the same. 

Co-creators – Ori Elo and Yehonatan Indursky – have crafted a series that provides unique insight into the world of an ultra-Orthodox Jewish family in Jerusalem; lovingly and gently drawing our heroes with humor and emotion which has resonated with viewers worldwide. 

 

First episode of the third season to be shown.
