GUY NATTIV:
I moved here five years ago from Israel. Laila tov, Israel, hi. And my grandparents, all of the survivors, you know, the bigotry that they experienced in the Holocaust, we see that everywhere today, in America, in Europe. And this film is about education. It’s about teaching your kids a better way.
JAIME RAY NEWMAN:
We dedicate this to our, oh my god! our five-month-old baby who is sitting at home with my parents watching this. We hope that you grow up in a world where these things don’t happen because people learn to love and accept each other. I want to thank Andrew Carlberg, Sharon Maymon, Tim Harms, all our team at ICM, our Maven girls: Celine, Trudie. Oren, if you’re out there.
GUY NATTIV:
Oren Moverman. Fox Searchlight.
JAIME RAY NEWMAN:
