“My Unorthodox Life” on Netflix based on reality. Netflix’s ‘Unorthodox’ went to remarkable lengths to get Hasidic Jewish customs right. Wow! This is really interesting as I am Jewish. The difference between this lady and me is that we were reform Jews who rarely lit Friday night candles and only went went to a synagogue on high holidays. Even my grand parents from Europe weren’t all that religious.
The story about the woman depicted in this Netflix movie is explained in an article in the Los Angeles Times.
