“Matchmaking” (Promotional still)

Moti Bernstein is the perfect “catch,” at least according to his ultra-Orthodox family and his two matchmakers, who send the young yeshiva student on a flurry of dates with eligible Ashkenazi women. But Moti only has eyes for his sister’s friend Nechama, who hails from a Moroccan Mizrahi family. Throwing caution—and taboo—to the wind, Moti moves to win the hand of his Sephardic love. A Haredi take on the “Romeo and Juliet” story, this romantic comedy is Israel’s biggest 2023 box office hit.

Followed by a pre-recorded conversation with writer/director Erez Tadmor and actor Marni Woolf (film character Naomi Friedlander), moderated by Wesleyan University film professor and Israeli film critic Avner Shavit.
