Joy Rieger was born on 3 March 1994 in Herzliya, Israel. She is an actress and director, known for I'm Not Okay (2024), Virgins (2018) and Past Life (2016).
Two rebellious young women - one fleeing the chaos of secular hedonism for the disciplined comforts of faith; the other desperate to transcend her oppressive religious cross paths unexpectedly in Jerusalem, to startling consequences.
Past Life tracks the daring late 1970s odyssey of two sisters - an introverted classical musician and a rambunctious scandal sheet journalist - as they unravel a shocking wartime mystery that has cast a dark shadow on their entire lives.
