What do you do when the cards aren’t in your favor? Change the game. When high school teacher Barry Bernstein loses funding for the annual school musical, he enlists the help of his colleague Jonah to cheat in an underground card game run by the Hasidic Jewish community. However, as the plan goes awry and secrets of Jonah’s past are revealed, the pair find themselves getting more than they bargained for. A wild ride from start to finish, Yaniv unpacks Jewish identity, male friendship, and public education through the lens of an absurd, madcap comedy.
