SHTISEL was created and written by Ori Elon and Yehonatan Indursky and produced by Abot Hameiri, a Fremantle company.

Fresh off her nomination for an Emmy Award for her role in Netflix's Unorthodox, SHTISEL is the latest project from Shira Haas, who returns as Ruchama Weiss, the grand-daughter of THE FAMILY patriarch. Production started and finished after Israel's first Covid-19 lockdown.
