Shuroo
Comedy about life among Tel Aviv's 30-something bourgeoisie is nothing if not proof that self-absorbed, would-be hipsters are the same the world over. The central character is Asher, an unbecoming depressive and all-round schlemiel who publishes a book on 'How to Be an Idiot', and finds himself becoming the guru of a self-help circle. A liberal sprinkling of sight gags and non-sequiturs - and even a slight flavour of Almodรณvar in the sexual absurdities - keeps things lively.

Storyline
Comedy about life among Tel Aviv's 30-something bourgeoisie is nothing if not proof that self-absorbed, would-be hipsters are the same the world over.

A liberal sprinkling of sight gags and non-sequiturs - and even a slight flavour of Almodรณvar in the sexual absurdities - keeps things lively.
