More Film Festivals

San Francisco loves their film festivals. Right now there are two going on -- the Short Film Festival at the Victoria and The Jewish Film Festival at various locations.

Later this month is the Crossing the Border Film Festival at the Roxie sponsored by the Goeth-Institut has 15 films about immigration and one I would really like to see is "The Short Life of Jose Antonio Gutierrez". He was the first soldier killed in the Iraq war. But it is not all somber and sad tales there is also "In July" and "Welcome Home" both German films.

Come November it is The International Latino Film Festival which will be held at various locations around the bay area including the Mission Cultural Center.
