RunningDocumentary showRomance

This Valentine's Day, SBS will re-write the book of love with The Matchmakers, a heart-warming yet confronting documentary series which dives into the unique and private world of three of Australia's most successful cultural matchmakers. 

In an age of online dating, profile pics, swipe-rights and high divorce rates, many hopeful Australians are turning to the ancient traditions of matchmaking to find ‘the one'.  The Matchmakers goes behind the scenes of Australia's traditional Jewish, Muslim and Hindu matchmakers as they help singles in the universal quest for love in contemporary Australia.

Covering every dramatic and heartfelt beat – first dates, awkward meets and sensitive negotiations between all parties, the series offers a front row seat into the sensitive and nuanced negotiations critical in bringing two families together, as matchmakers work tirelessly to ensure their culture continues through to the next generation.
