After the success of Jellyfish, Etgar Keret and Shira Geffen come back to directing with The Middleman - a new TV mini-series. David Lynch meets Luis De Funes in a unique tale that tries to take a humorous peek into the darkest corners of our subconscious:  A homeless real estate agent who gets legal consulting from his Goldfish discovers that he can travel in time. Will he be able to change his past, and even more importantly, will his past be able to change the painfully isolated and lonely present?
