"... each exquisitely-composed shot creates a world of haunting loss, unsurpassed faith and human dignity." San Francisco Jewish Film Festival, on "Farewell", 1999

"Farewell" is the most beautifully shot films in quite some time. ...It really takes it's time to explore the subject, as opposed to a lot of American films which are very fast-paced." Jay Shefsky, WTTW Channel 11, Chicago, on "Farewell", 1998
