A hilarious take on the journey of converting to Judaism, from the traditional rabbi's skepticism to an alternative initiation involving an unforgettable El Al flight experience. Comedy gold about cultural identity and perseverance.
The rabbi tells them "No, you don't," showing chutzpah by discouraging them from converting.
If someone really wants to become Jewish, they have to spend almost a whole year keeping the Sabbath like most Jewish people do.
The rabbi proposes that to become Jewish, a person would only need to fly from New York to Tel Aviv and back to New York on five El Al Israeli airline afternoon flights in the middle seat of economy class without sleeping pills.
