Sallah Shabati
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sallah Shabbati (Heb. סאלח שבתי) is a motion picture comedy about the chaos of Israeli immigration and resettlement that introduced actor Chaim Topol (Fiddler on the Roof) to audiences worldwide. This social satire placed the director Ephraim Kishon and producer Menahem Golan among the first Israeli filmmakers to achieve international success.
This film was nominated for a 1964 Academy Award in the category of Best Foreign Language Film, losing the Oscar to the Italian film, Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.
