 Making Arrangements – a film review of "Arranged"

EntertainmentThe age old question of how to find Mr. Right is the basis of the film "Arranged" by Stefan Schaefer, Diane Crespo, and Yuta Silverman. What makes this film different than all of the other romantic comedies or dramas that explore this theme is the unconventional two central characters in the film – an orthodox Jewish woman and a devoted Muslim woman from Syria. The filmmakers take a bold leap by exploring this common theme within two traditional cultures that are rarely depicted on film together.

 "The Bubble" – an Eyton Fox film

The film tries to depict how three Israelis (Lulu, Noam, and Yali) and one Palestinian (Ashraf) try to lead normal lives in Tel Aviv (their bubble) while intolerance and hatred brew around them.

What do you think of the yeshiva tuition you pay?

Just right
Should be a little lower
OK for 1 child but 2+ should be heavily discounted
Way too high
Way too high there must be some corruption
Increase it to pay teacher and other staff more
