Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Carthago was Atlit detainee camp, where Holocaust survivors were imprisoned by British Mandate forces—Israel's buried shame until recent decades.
Reshef Levi based Elijah on his grandfather, a comedian who performed for British officers; the show's absurdism is inherited trauma processed through humor.
