Shira Haas

In Unorthodox, the first Netflix original series in Yiddish, Shira Haas plays Esti, a young woman in a strict Hasidic community in Brooklyn who decides to flee to Berlin in search of her mother after a failed marriage puts her at odds with the group. The New York Times just called her 'a phenomenon', but this is not the first time that the Israeli actress has been celebrated for her work.
