7:00pm – Film Screening: Matchmaking 2
After breaking box office records with their first film, the characters from Matchmaking return with this endearing romantic comedy set against Ashkenazi and Sepharic cultural tensions

Maor Schwitzer (Valley of Tears, Shtisel) stars as Baruch Auerbach, a graduate student who continues to live in a small room at the yeshiva where he studied and now serves as the faithful assistant to the matchmaker Malchi (Irit Kaplan, The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem). When Malchi assigns him the task of picking up her younger daughter Shira from the airport, he decides it’s time for him to get married but struggles to be seen as an eligible suitor.

Featuring a stellar supporting cast that includes Reymonde Amsallem (Seven Blessings), this sequel is a fun trip in its own right that does not require familiarity with its predecessor. View Film Trailer >
