Other film festivals are offering links to free movies during COVID-19 Stay-at-Home orders. Where are yours?! Would help keep us entertained during a trying time, and IFF visibility fresh on our minds during this downtime.
Great great great movies! Loved everything I watched.
I wait for the Israeli Film Festival every yea
r to ce to LA. I feel connected to Israel ,I love it.
As an American Jew living in Los Angeles, shame on the festival for forcing Jason Blum from the stage, and shame on the audience for booing one of its own. Do we turn on each other or the people who are dividing us?!
nice
Glad to announce:
