Rutgers Jewish Film Festival Presents: Kiss Me Kosher
Kiss Me Kosher (Israel and Germany, 2021, 101 minutes)
English, German, Hebrew, and Arabic with English subtitles • Director: Shirel Peleg
Moran Rosenblatt (Wedding Doll, Fauda) stars in this delightful Israeli comedy that mines interfaith and cross-cultural relationships. Before she can marry Maria, her non-Jewish, German girlfriend, Shira must first convince her family that Maria’s family were “good Germans” during the war. When Maria’s parents arrive in Israel, the two families must overcome their vast
cultural and religious differences, all of which are captured on video to full comic effect by Shira’s younger brother who documents their interactions for a school project.
WINNER: Best German Film on a Jewish Theme, Berlin Jewish Film Festival, 2021
