A Touch Away (Hebrew: מרחק נגיעה, romanized: Merchak Negi'aa) is a record-breaking Israeli drama television miniseries, winner of The Television Academy award פרס האקדמיה לטלוויזיה,. It was first aired in January 23, 2007 and in 2008 was bought by HBO. It was the second Israeli drama series to be bought by HBO after BeTipul.

Set in Bnei Brak, a city to the east of Tel Aviv, within the larger Tel Aviv District, in Israel, A Touch Away has been described as a kind of Romeo and Juliet story, focusing on two families from the two poles of the secular and orthodox societies living in the same building in Bnei Brak. Against all odds, Zurik Mintz, a young secular Jewish immigrant from Russia, falls in love with young Roch'le Berman from the city's Haredi (orthodox) community. Using this relationship as the basis for the story, the series explores the lives of new immigrants, non-religious, and religious Jews in Israel.
