A young millennial and his grandfather are in financial trouble following the COVID pandemic and decide to start an illegal, homemade moonshine business in a forgotten desert town. The two find themselves entangled between the police and a local Bedouin crime clan, but mostly—between one another.

​

When Yuval, a struggling Tel Aviv bar owner, faces financial ruin, he’s pulled back to his dusty hometown of Arad to track down his runaway grandfather, Shmulik—an eccentric widower with a temper, a gun, and a secret talent for brewing outstanding moonshine.

​

Their uneasy reunion soon turns into a hilarious partnership as the pair transform Shmulik’s moonshine hobby into a booming underground business. Joined by Yuval’s spiritual childhood friend, his bored ex-girlfriend, and a Bedouin clan with dubious connections, they navigate success, crime, and chaos.

​

When a corrupt police officer targets them, Yuval is torn between loyalty and survival. Fast-paced, funny, and full of heart, Brewing Trouble delivers a universally relatable mix of generational conflict, cultural flavor, and wild misadventure about family, failure, and second chances, served with a splash of homemade moonshine.
