                                              Praise for the SLO Jewish Film Festival


                                              2012I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for a magical weekend and making me feel so welcome...I was beyond impressed by the whole weekend.  It was so well organized and put together and I really enjoyedthe films, presentations and delicious meals. 
                                              WOW!  I can not thank you enough. I felt honored and delighted to be part of the audience for the Heifetz film tonight. What a beautiful and absorbing film.
                                              A grrrrreat job last night! Dinner and movie were both terrific!
                                              2011
                                              "Live and Become was an overwhelming film -- one of the best 
                                              we have EVER seen! It should be shared with every temple, JCC
                                              and synagogue in the world.... plus given a special award by the

                                              Academy. Everyone in the audience was moved...Thank you for 
                                              bringing it to us."

                                              "Thank you for all your hard work and I feel blessed to be part of 
                                              this community.  When I was in Brazil and we had the Jewish 
                                              Film Festival as our own event, but here it is really important to 
                                              bring our community and values together.  This was an amazing 
                                              event and I hope we have many more to come!"

                                              "I thoroughly enjoyed the film festival and it proved that a 
                                              54-year-old professor can continue to learn. My daughter loved the
                                              cultural experience and will use some names, references, and 
                                              material as she pursues her doctorate in Yiddish Language and 
                                              Culture at the University of Michigan." 

                                              "What you guys did this weekend, from my tiny glimpse, was beyond 

                                              professional, amazing, and is going to stay with me forever. Thank 
                                              you."
