Home (Hebrew: בית, translit. Beit) is a 2023 Israeli drama film. It was written and directed by Benny Fredman and stars Roy Nik and Yarden Toussia-Cohen.
It is based on the true life story of Fredman.[1][2] Yair (Nik), a young Haredi man, abandons his yeshiva studies to open a computer store in Geula, a Haredi neighborhood in Jerusalem. In doing so he angers the Haredi establishment, setting up a violent confrontation. The establishment sees Yair and his store as an existential threat to their way of living.[1]
The film was nominated for nine awards, including Best Film, at the Ophir Awards. Roy Nik won the Best Actor award and Dror Keren won the award for Best Supporting Actor.
