THE MATCHMAKER

November 22nd, 2010

THE MATCHMAKER- 2010. Premise by Netflix. “In an Israel still recovering from World War II yet also grappling with the tumultuous “Swinging Sixties,” teenager Arik (Tuval Shafir) works for matchmaker Yankele Bride (Adir Miller) as a “spy-guy” who investigates potential clients, and gets a master class in the art of love. Yankele, who operates in an unsavory area of Haifa, is in love with fellow Holocaust survivor Clara (Maya Dagan), while Arik finds romance with a wild American (Neta Porat).” A few good reviews.
