Unorthodox (2020)
The protagonist Esther is torn between the Orthodox world bound by tradition and a multitude of rigid rules in one of New York's Jewish neighbourhoods on the one hand and the free world of artists in Berlin full of unlimited possibilities on the other. I liked the plot layering of the miniseries, in which we follow the fate of Esti in two spatiotemporal planes that intersect at the end. I have some basic understanding of the Jews and their culture, but it was enlightening to broaden my horizons a bit more and peek under the hood of the traditional world and its customs, which were at times slightly shocking. Aside from the dramatic storyline, the miniseries also offers a few laugh-out-loud moments, like the Jewish sex education and Jews vs. technology. All in all, a rewarding and very entertaining three and a half hours.
