BEST FEATURES

IRENA'S VOW
"A powerful and emotional film based on a true story. Amazing bravery by a very young Irena. Great movie. Highly recommended!"

THE BLOND BOY FROM THE CASBAH
"This film had me in tears. My mother in law is originally from Algeria and it meant so much to see what the Jews went through at that time. Beautifully filmed and directed."

TATAMI
"Amazing and very interesting movie. Left me thinking long after I had left the theatre. Highly recommend."

BEST DOCUMENTARIES

JANIS IAN: BREAKING THE SILENCE
"One of the best documentary films of a musician I have ever seen, riveting from start to end."

WELCOME TO YIDDISHLAND
"Finally! A film that gives us hope for the future as well as the brutal truth of current day politics. Filled with music, laughter and inspiration!"

THE COMMANDANT'S SHADOW
"Best film in JIFF this year"
