Matchmaking 3

The beloved Israeli box-office hit saga continues with Matchmaking 3, the hilarious and heartwarming third chapter in director Erez Tadmor’s smash-hit romantic comedy trilogy. 

Baruch Auerbach, an unlucky-in-love Orthodox matchmaker from Bnei Brak, is finally engaged to struggling pastry chef Ruth but their financial woes make the loved-up pair’s dream wedding impossible. 

When American Jewish Orthodox millionaire Michael Gerstel offers a $100,000 to anyone capable of finding a suitable match for his only daughter, Baruch is left with no option but to reunite with his mentor/adversary, Malki, for the matchmaking mission of-a-lifetime. 

Featuring quintessential New York moments—including scenes inspired by director Erez Tadmor’s real life experiences—Baruch and Malki find themselves in a complicated world of wealth, luxury and unexpected challenges.  

Matchmaking 3 is a crowd-pleasing exploration of family, faith, identity, and a reminder of what really matters in life.
