EXCLUSIVE: Fresh off the back of her jury prize win in Monte Carlo, we can bring you first look images of Unorthodox star Shira Haas in yes TV‘s Night Therapy.
Night Therapy will launch on the Israeli Network on June 30 and yes Studios is selling around the world.

Created by Raanan Caspi, Night Therapy is a psychological drama starring Yousef Sweid (Munich Games, Game of Thrones) and Haas (Captain America), plus Lucy Ayoub, Yaakov Zada Daniel and Firas Nassar, all of whom have starred in Fauda.
The show tells the story of Louie (Sweid), an Arab-Israeli psychologist struggling to raise his two children after the suicide of his Jewish-Israeli wife. To strike a better work-homelife balance and support his kids during the day as they rebuild their lives, he decides to shift his practice to receive patients at night. Haas plays a patient – a computer genius who rarely leaves her home, preferring to lead her life in the virtual world.
Haas recently starred in Netflix’s Bodies and is leading Aisling Walsh biopic Ethel about a pioneering female conductor.
Night Therapy director is Gabriel Bibliowicz and producers are Dafna Danenberg, Aviram Avraham and Benny Menache at Eight Productions.
The Monte Carlo TV Festival has also featured the likes of Carrie Preston and Simone Ashley.
