Plot
Deadpan, small-time Kosher Nostra mobster Harry Plotnick goes meshugga when he gets into the catering biz with his ex-brother-in-law.
Sinekatalog’s take
Deadpan and shabby in the best way, this tale of a low-level Jewish mobster stumbling into catering with his ex-brother-in-law makes comedy from sheer bad luck. Its dry wit and neighbourhood texture feel entirely its own. A treat for fans of understated, gently absurd comedies.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
