Introducing all 8 episodes of Sovietzka, the latest binge-worthy Israeli TV comedy series.
Sovietzka centres around the Goldenbergs, a family of repatriates from Azerbaijan. Between financial struggles and the xenophobia they experience in their day-to-day lives, they start to undergo a collective identity crisis. When the youngest daughter posts a video that accidentally goes viral on social media, she inadvertently becomes a role model for Russian-speaking young adults across the country, further destabilizing her family.
Writer Dana Abramovich has created one of the smartest character-oriented tv shows to come out of Israel in a long time. Sovietzkaboasts a brilliant cast that includes Susanna Papian (The Monkey House), Evgenia Dodina (Killing Eve), and Lena Fraifeld (Valeria Is Getting Married).
When David and his fiance Meg gather for his family’s traditional Shabbat dinner, things spiral faster than you can say “hamotzi” when an accidental death derails the evening entirely.
