FILM REVIEWS

"The (San Diego Jewish Film) festival is also known for showcasing the works of young filmmakers and nowhere is this more impressive than with the locally made documentary "We Must Remember." Broadcast journalism students at Carlsbad High School set out to change the way eighth-graders learn about the Holocaust by making a documentary. Sixteen students decided to get a firsthand look at history by going to Europe to visit concentration camps, interview Holocaust survivors, and meet with German high school students. The result is a film that shows how history came vividly alive for these students. There's a sense of both touching sincerity and discovery as these teens research their project and are moved by the results." (Beth Accomando, KPBS Film Critic) ************************* I am so proud of these young filmmakers, for their storytelling ability, for their production skills, but most of all for their humanity.”  (Joe Fab, Producer, "Paper Clips." )
