This documentary is fantastic. The storytelling was incredible and it really made me so proud of the history of my community.
I love the way the film lets the family members of historical Jewish figures in the west tell their own stories. I loved hearing directly from the families about the contributions of their great grandparents and other family members.
The filmmaker really let her subjects shine and have their stories told properly, which was so lovely to watch as a viewer.
Many Jewish documentaries focus on sad parts of our history, which unfortunately are many, so it was such a welcome change to see a film with Jewish pride at the center!
