Nora Lee Mandel Maven's Nest A model for how almost any woman's life that intersects with history can be made into a memoir film, as long as one has resources for archival footage, photos and home movies Rated: 7/10 Mar 15, 2021 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills This is a sort of high-end family album of a movie, highly personal yet not so insular that it can't be enjoyed by general viewers. Nov 20, 2020 Full Review Anita Katz San Francisco Examiner Selvin and Fanshel's heartfelt tribute to Irmi is undeniably moving, and the consideration the pair give to the 20th-century Jewish experience, and to the strength and contributions of refugees and immigrants, broadens and deepens the picture. Rated: 3/4 Nov 13, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
