“Kid Sister”

ChaiFlicks and Seven.One Studios International have finalized a deal to bring both seasons of the hit comedy series “Kid Sister” exclusively to the streaming platform in the US, UK, and Australia. Written, executive produced by, and starring Simone Nathan (“Our Flag Means Death,”), the 10-episode series (five episodes per season, running approximately 20 minutes each) is scheduled to premiere on the platform this fall

Originally commissioned by TVNZ and produced by Greenstone TV, the New Zealand series follows Lulu (Nathan), an unmarried 29-year-old navigating life with her Jewish family in Auckland—a city where a national census famously recorded more residents identifying as Jedis than Jews. As Lulu balances her family’s intense pressure to uphold traditions with her secret relationship with her non-Jewish boyfriend, Ollie, she attempts to carve out her own path. The series was produced by Emily Aderton and directed by Aidee Walker.

“Simone Nathan is an extraordinary talent,”stated Neil Friedman, ChaiFlicks Co-Founder. “Her sharp writing, distinctive sense of humor, and authentic portrayal of a young woman navigating a deeply conflicted relationship with herself and her family are truly remarkable. I would describe her voice as a blend of Lena Dunham and Jenny Slate—smart, fearless, and refreshingly original—and ‘Kid Sister’ is a perfect showcase for her exceptional talent.”

“I’ve always hoped that audiences beyond New Zealand would connect with this series and the story we’re telling,”Nathan said.“At its core, the show explores the universal pressure many people face from family and society to settle down, regardless of their religion, background, or gender. Because so many elements of my own life are woven into the series, it’s especially meaningful to share it with a broader audience.”
