This award-winning Israeli TV drama takes a slice of contemporary Tel Aviv life and spins out a marvelous drama focusing on two families living in the orthodox neighborhood of Bnai Barak. A strictly religious Orthodox family whose daughter Rochele is about to enter into an arranged marriage. But sparks fly when a secular Russian family move next door. Very quickly, a forbidden romance develops. The series is a realistic reflection of the social challenges facing Israeli society today.
