Are Netflix’s algorithms antisemitic? I only ask because after watching the new documentary “Operation Varsity Blues: The College Admissions Scandal,” the streaming service suggested I view “Shtisel” next.
Now, my usual feeling when being presented with the viewing option at the end of a show is annoyance as I want to watch the end credits. But this was a genuine “WTF?” moment: What on earth is the connection between a film about crimes committed by the rich and – in some cases – famous, and an ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem?
Why “Shtisel” and not, say, a more obvious choice like director Chris Smith’s previous film for Netflix, “Fyre,” about the infamous tropical-island music festival that never happened?

It takes Yael Eckstein three days to get from her home in Israel to Middlesboro, Kentucky, but it’s a journey she is happy to make.
That’s because the city’s residents are staunch supporters of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, one of the largest organizations supporting humanitarian projects in Israel. At the time of filming, Christians had donated $1.4 billions to Israel through the fellowship. It was created by Yael Eckstein’s father, Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, who named her as his successor.
Middlesboro’s residents are not wealthy. Their community is blighted by the decline of coal, economic recession and addiction. Yet they pool their small-dollar donations to the fellowship at their church under the guidance of the Bingham family, a local dynasty of pastors who preach that God will bless the nations who support the nation of Israel.
