The series that has turned into a global phenomenon follows the lives of the extended Shtisel family, a warm, closely-knit and argumentative ultra-Orthodox family in Jerusalem.
Created by Ori Elon and Yehonatan Indursky, the series provides unique insight into the daily lives and loves propelling the "Haredi" society.
Now in its third season, the beloved family returns five years from where we last saw them. Akiva (Michael Aloni) is now a father and a thriving artist, though he is still a cause of 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 (Emmy® Award Nominee Shira Haas) and Yossale (Gal Fishel ). 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 the gregarious matchmaker Menucha (Hana Laslo), though he seems to prefer to focus on his studies. Yet when he meets Shira Levi (Reef Neeman), a beautiful, incredibly smart young woman, his life is no longer the same.
