Shtisel

Totally addictive, great character developments. Intense dramas with an omnipresent fine touch. Welcome to an approach to the life of an ultraorthodox Jewish family of Jerusalem.

There is no 'blowing up and cussing' as the cliche goes. Nothing, absolutely nothing spectacular until you watch it. These seem to be real people in real life situations that relate to life as it is lived. Beautifully presented videography, superbly written scenarios and acting- the acting!

This show is just so special, beautifully drawn, written & presented, I loved all the characters, the opening credits, the unpretentious un self conscious feel of it and how the many aspects of personality/ behaviour around grief loss deception yearning etc is portrayed. Highly recommended. It's a shame so many people will be binging on exploitative muck like YOU and missing this wonderful heart and soul contribution. Thanks to all involved.

I cannot describe how much I enjoyed watching this series. The pace is perfect, the quality and strength of characters is second to none. I have totally fallen love with all of them particularly Shtisel and his Father. Shtisel senior is a fantastic actor, his energy is magical and his mannerisms are amazing. I have learnt so much about the Orthodox Jewish community, it has been so enjoyable and interesting. PLEASE bring out series 3. I not am not sure why this series has appealed to me and touched my heart so much but it has. I am a huge fan of World Cinema and this is a unique and original peice of work.

Well at last I have found a program that I absolutely love. Grandma makes me laugh out loud, she is a real character. I am learning about this different culture and find it so interesting. So here it is 2019 and I have only just found it!! I think the actors are all superb! I wish it was more than just two series. Well done to all concerned. A really great and intelligent story.
