Overview

Friday afternoon turns into a rambunctious adventure, filled with mitzvot and mayhem, as Leelee and Pickles help their family prepare for Shabbat.

There’s only three hours until Shabbat, and there’s still a lot to be done! But Friday afternoon’s plans of cleaning the house and collecting donations go sideways with Leelee and her dog, Pickles, at the helm. With so much to do – and so many distractions – will the family be ready in time for candle lighting?

A rhythmic, silly, and heartwarming glimpse inside a Jewish home as they prepare for Shabbat.
