Drama in the Palm of Your Hand: Raye Solesh on Microdrama

Most of us retreat to our phones to escape, but it was precisely there that Roi Solash found himself. Years after completing his film studies, rejection letters from screenings continued to pile up, and the dream of creating seemed farther away than ever. So he stopped waiting. “It’s Not Over,” a micro-drama he created about a couple of exes, became an Instagram sensation with millions of views. How does the very medium we like to blame for eroding interpersonal connection turn out to be fertile ground for exploring intimacy? And how is this intimacy translated into the relationship between the creator and his audience of followers?

A conversation about the drama within the feed, and what it reveals about the future of television.

The event takes place as part of Jerusalem Sessions – Israel’s first international television festival, November 18–19, 2026.
