About Shtisel
Shtisel is a Israeli TV drama that follows the lives of Shulem Shtisel (Dov Glickman), the Shtisel patriarch and a Rabbi at the local yeshiva, as well as those of the other members of his family. Shtisel is set in a religious, Internet-free neighborhood.
The community follows strict haredi customs and violating the norms often causes chaos within the family. However, the characters, who are more open to secular lifestyle, reflect Geula’s moderation in comparison to their neighbors in Mea She’arim, the adjacent community known for religious extremism.
