Storyline:
Two celebrations... One broken family... And a grief that forces them to face what they lost.
In Mazel Tov, Darío Roitman has spent years keeping his distance from his family—emotionally and physically. But when he's called back to attend his sister’s wedding and his niece’s bat mitzvah, he’s pulled into a weekend of tradition, joy, and unspoken tension.
Then, unexpectedly, tragedy strikes.
What was meant to be a weekend of celebration becomes a painful reckoning. Darío finds himself forced to reconnect with his estranged siblings, each carrying their own scars, expectations, and blame. Amid prayers, rituals, and memory-laced spaces, the family must navigate grief, forgiveness, and the question of what it truly means to belong to one another.
Warm, raw, and quietly powerful, Mazel Tov explores how family history and cultural identity intertwine, and how sometimes it takes heartbreak to open the door to healing.
