Hahamishia Hakamerit (Hebrew: החמישייה הקאמרית, The Kameri Quintet‎‎) was a weekly Israeli satirical sketch comedy television program created by Asaf Tzipor, who was also the main writer of the show, and Eitan Tzur, who directed the entire run of the show. Hahamishia Hakamerit was broadcast on Israeli Channel 2 and Channel 1 between the years 1993-1997. Later on, reruns of the show were broadcast on the cable channel Bip (channel). The show's often surreal skits were characterized by a satirical point of view which did not spare the audience sensitive subjects such as politics, national security, the Holocaust and sex.

“Don’t be scared,” he’d whisper, “There’s nothing to be scared of. It’s just the hollow people.” Peter Nestler has made a film based on Israeli author and scriptwriter Etgar Keret’s short story “The Hollow Men”. a man’s memories of his childhood, marked by the fear of bodiless voices and masks. A beautiful and terrible miniature at the same time.

The film is based on the story "Goldfish" by the famous Israeli writer Etgar Keret, paradoxically combining modernity with fiction and the absurd. His heroes are: a young guy Jonathan, who came up with a documentary project in which he will shoot how ordinary people fantasize about what they would ask for from a goldfish; and a poorly speaking Hebrew immigrant from Russia Sergey, who has a real goldfish and has the last unnamed desire.

These short television dramas brought young Hebrew writers together with a new generation of filmmakers. The prevailing topic is love between young urbanites.

A homeless real estate agent who gets legal consulting from his Goldfish discovers that he can travel in time.

The show's often surreal skits were characterized by a satirical point of view which did not spare the audience sensitive subjects such as politics, national security, the Holocaust and sex. Another characteristic of the show's sketches was that occasionally they had an unclear point or punch line. Following the success of the show, similar sketch comedy programs were produced on Israeli television. Unlike Hahamishia Hakamerit's humor, these subsequent shows followed a line much closer to the consensus.
