Film Fest: Matchmaking 2

Comedy | 2024 | 110 min | Israel | Hebrew

Directed by Erez Tadmor

After breaking box office records with their first film, the characters from Matchmaking return in this endearing romantic comedy set against Ashkenazi and Sephardic cultural tensions. Full of joy, warmth and the ultimate romantic entanglements, this refreshing and feel-good romantic drama brings us back to the pressure cooker of high-stakes Haredi dating. Endlessly witty, this film is a tender, side-splitting celebration of clashing traditions and big-hearted characters, starring some of Israel’s most dazzling young talents.
