Film Details

Get ready to laugh and kvell with self-proclaimed international Yiddish-ish icons YidLife Crisis—comedy duo Eli Batalion and Jamie Elman—as they bravely step onto Swedish soil to unearth a hidden treasure trove of Jewish culture. From the moment they arrive in Stockholm, our heroes prepare for a big live show while unraveling the little-known history of Sweden’s Jewish community. Along the way, they dive into a Yiddish cultural revival that’s as unexpected as it is joyous. With their unique blend of humor and heart, Eli and Jamie remind us that sometimes the most exciting connections pop up where you least expect them, and that Jewish joy is truly universal.
