Popular Israeli Series ‘Shtisel’ Changes U.S. Home to Amazon Prime Video (EXCLUSIVE)


'Shtisel,' the hit series following the lives of a tight-knit ultra-Orthodox family in Jerusalem, has been acquired by Amazon Prime Video in the U.S.

The award-winning drama, which helped launch the international careers of Shira Haas (“Unorthodox”) and Michael Aloni (“Beauty Queen of Jerusalem”), will begin its rollout on Prime Video this month with Season 1 debuting on Jan. 16. “With its endearing characters and compelling look into everyday life in an ultra-orthodox community, ‘Shtisel’ has quickly become an addictive and binge-worthy series wherever it has been made available,” said Sharon Levi, Yes Studios’ managing director. “Its reputation and huge word-of-mouth support means that it is in constant demand, so we are excited to now introduce the Shtisel family to a whole new audience through this latest partnership with Amazon, as well as the recent deals with Izzy and ChaiFlicks.”
