Hasidic ad || A scandalous sight: are they sitting in front of the forbidden television??!!

Further in my collection of Hasidic ads... this one has some fun playing with the American pastime of sitting in front of the television with some popcorn and a giant drink. But of course, the television is nicknamed the "tumene keileh", the unkosher device, the impure device, and will not be found in typical Hasidic homes. This video, however, knows full well about secular culture, about movie-watching life, and has fun taunting the viewer with the scandal that these three Hasidic men are sitting there watching. At last, when the plot twist comes around, and without spoiling it too much, let's just say the movie pans to "huleptzes", which are Hasidic stuffed cabbage.
