In the cloistered Haredi world of Jerusalem, Bati and Lazer appear to have it all: a loving marriage, three young children, and a life built on faith and order. But when Lazer is blackmailed with compromising photos — and a long-buried truth about his own sexuality surfaces — the fragile scaffolding of their marriage begins to crack. What follows is an unflinching yet deeply compassionate look at love, repression, and the cost of honesty within a society that prizes silence…

Directed by acclaimed Israeli filmmaker Nir Bergman (Broken Wings), Pink Lady is both intimate and explosive — a film that transforms private struggle into universal revelation. Winner of Best Director at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival and an Official Selection of the Palm Springs International Film Festival, it has quickly become one of the year’s most talked-about Israeli dramas.
