Kid Sister
2 Episodes
Kid Sister follows Lulu, a young woman navigating love, identity in Auckland, New Zealand—where, remarkably, more people identify as Jedi than Jewish. On the brink of being considered a ‘spinster,’ Lulu’s family continues to pressure her to marry a ‘nice Jewish boy’ so she can keep their traditions alive. But Lulu is secretly still in a relationship with her on-again, off-again, very non-Jewish boyfriend, Ollie.
The critically acclaimed, hilarious, and heartfelt semi-autobiographical series is created by and starring Simone Nathan (Our Flag Means Death, We Might Regret This).
