​

"Adapted from the bestselling novel by the same name, this colorful, passionate and tragic series, interwoven with Judeo-Spanish traditions, is set against the backdrop of resistance to the Turkish regime, and the underground war with the British," producer Yes said on the show's website.

Created by Shlomo Mashiach, Oded Davidoff, and Ester Namdar Tamam, The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem is based on a 2013 novel by Sarit Yishai-Levi. The show was directed by Oded Davidoff and produced by Yes TV and Artza Productions.
