Like a modern-day Romeo, Moti (Amit Rahav) falls head over heels for his sister’s friend Nechama (Liana Ayoun), but isn’t allowed to date the charming, beautiful young woman because she comes from a Mizrahi (Middle Eastern) family, not an Ashkenazi (European) family like his own. To the great despair of both his parents and an exasperated matchmaker, he goes to comical lengths to pursue his one true love.
The film will be followed by a dessert reception.
