The Transit Camp(2026)

The Transit Camp is a comedy-drama created by and starring Shalom Assayag alongside his son Daniel. Set in 1950s Israel, the series follows Eliyahu Ben Simon and his family as they arrive from Morocco to a crowded immigrant transit camp, where they navigate bureaucracy, close-quarters living, and the gap between their dreams and harsh reality. The Assayags craft a portrait of resilience and adaptation, balancing the family's struggles with warmth and humor as they work to establish themselves in their new homeland. The series echoes the tone of their earlier work exploring Israeli life across decades, capturing both the hardship and the indomitable spirit of those building a new life in unfamiliar circumstances.
