I'd like to add that this film was also rather ridiculously inaccurate. Speaking as someone from the israeli chasidish community, I found this to be laughable. It is obvious that the film was made by someone who did not grow up in the lifestyle that she is trying to present. It seems like she is trying to give the non-religious israeli ( who tends to be anti-religious ) a view into our world but through rose-colored glasses. Also the non-religious actors did not come off as believable, I understand that they did the film in hebrew and not yiddish, that a family like this would have probably spoken, so that the general israeli population could understand, but they should have at leaset used a more religious vocabulary and dialect. Also the costumes were overboard, who wears fur coats in tel aviv ? My guess is that the director is Breslov but is trying to present a more mainstream Chasidus, that she really doesn't understand.

Most Disappointing.

Uspeizen was a much more watchable film.
