The delightful sequel to the 2022 Israeli box office hit rom-com, follows a love-struck bachelor in a Jerusalem yeshiva pressured to find his soulmate before it's too late. At 28, Baruch is “over the hill” in the ultra-Orthodox world, where most are married by now. When he meets Shira the gorgeous, brainy daughter of his tough matchmaker, sparks fly during a chance Sabbath encounter. But winning her over isn’t easy, especially with matchmaking meddling, personal doubts, and societal expectations. With humor and heart, director Erez Tadmor gives modern Orthodox dating a playful twist, blending love's challenges with sharp insights on identity, prejudice, and the clash of secular and religious values.
