Bati’s (Nur Fibak, Ahed’s Knee) happy life with her husband and three children in an ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem begins to crumble when her gentle husband Lazer (Uri Blufarb) is blackmailed by a gang policing the cloistered community. 

Surprising and suspenseful, this nuanced and generous character study explores a marriage in peril and two young people desperate to save each other while confronting their own desires. 

With moments of levity and superb character-driven storytelling, Nir Bergman’s restrained direction gains depth from strong performances and from the real life experiences of the film’s screenwriter Mindi Ehrlich, who was raised and married in Jerusalem’s Hasidic world. Pink Lady is told from Bati’s point of view, boldly addressing taboo subjects from a uniquely female perspective. 

Director Nir Bergman is one of Israel’s most acclaimed filmmakers, known for Broken Wings, Intimate Grammar, Yona, Saving Neta, Here We Are, and the TV series BeTipul, adapted in the US as In Treatment for HBO. With Pink Lady, Bergman has given us another unique and very special film.Please note: by purchasing a ticket to this screening, you agree that your contact information will be shared with the National Center for Jewish Film for the purpose of including you on their mailing lists.
