    Worth the watch!!

    Definitely worth the time!

    Covers religion, culture, lesbian, food, family, dancing and above all a happy ending!

    Lighthearted and hopeful!

    A solid romantic comedy with some additional spice

    At its core, this is a competently made romantic comedy that hits all the expected notes: a sweet lead couple, a cast of nutty but likeable family members and a lot of fun.

    What elevates it above the expected is the setting (isreali, german, and some arab culture clash) and the surprisingly earnest handling of this delicate intercultural dynamic. It handles it cleverly without ever losing sight of its rom-com core.

    A total fun romantic drama

    Cross-culture, cross-language, cross-country, cross-sexual orientation. You have got a lot to deal with in this comedy drama. Without a lag the script runs smoothly through till the end.

    Confused

    By the ratings.. Entertaining and really funny at points.

    I love it!

    A dynamic film that re-examines the attitudes of two young women who find themselves in an Israeli-German lesbian relationship and the influence of family. Excellent dialysis, a large number of quality replicas and question: Will love survive?
