Please join us for the opening night of the Miami Beach JCC’s Israeli Film Series, with the screening of the beautiful comedy Matchmaking on Monday, December 16, at 7:30 p.m.

Endlessly witty, visually rapturous, and sweetly romantic, Matchmaking is a Romeo and Juliet-like saga . Matchmaking is Israel’s biggest box office hit of the year, a joyous tale about tolerance and love. It is full of hijinks, jokes, and slapstick humor thanks to matchmaker Malki (Irit Kaplan from the beloved Israeli show The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem and Academy Award entry Foxtrot) and her deputy, Baruch (Maor Schwitzer from the internationally acclaimed show Shtisel), along with plenty of one-liners about spicy salads and noodle kugels, with a heavy dose of Yiddish sprinkled into the Hebrew script.
