The Last Derby Sha'arayim x Marmorek

2026 · 55m · Documentary

Daniel Gad steps for the first time into the role of director and creator, carrying a big question and a song in his heart, as he embarks on a personal journey alongside his father, a former player and club icon. Two adjacent neighborhoods in the city of Rehovot: Sha'arayim, founded in 1911 by immigrants from the Hidan region in Yemen, and Marmorek, established by immigrants from the Sharab region. Each has its own football team, founded in the late 1940s, with rich traditions and a long-standing rivalry so deep that even in the cemetery, a wall separates the communities. Maccabi Sha'arayim and Hapoel Marmorek – the Rehovot derby. Now, a new stadium is being built in the city. Will this dream unite them, or tear them apart forever?
