Lost Paradise

A journey of loss and rebirth

Premiere Date: 2026

Ever since the phenomenal success of Fiddler on the Roof, which introduced the shtetls of Eastern Europe and Sholem Aleichem’s unforgettable Tevye the Dairyman to the American imagination, few works for television or film have touched upon the Jewish world of Eastern Europe prior to its extermination in the Holocaust. This is the aspiration of Lost Paradise—to portray the rich Jewish world that thrived for centuries before the establishment of the State of Israel through a storyline that unfolds over three seasons: the first focused on the shtetl, the second on the Holocaust, and the third on the birth of Israel.
