And kudo's to all the short listed finalist's who didn't. I am bummed The Response didn't make it, but it's pretty cool how far it went. Considering it's a 'political' hotbed of a story.

Hope it wins. Saw The Response and thought it was incredibly powerful and moving; echoes of Kafka’s The Trial; very timely. Hope it wins.

I'm a big fan of it. So much so, in fact, that I recently interviewed the director, Gregg Helvey. His surprisingly down-to-earth views on what he hopes to accomplish with the film were very refreshing. I hope his film wins. The only one of these films that I’ve seen is Kavi. I’m a big fan of it.

It is about a gay Jewish man in his seventies that gatecrashes funerals (shivas) and pickpockets the mourners. It has a bit of everything, drama, humour, but what I liked most about it was the performance of the lead (Derek Jacobi) who played Sidney who was nothing but senstational! Definatly worth seeing and a big contender I think! I have only seen Sidney Turtlebaum which I thought it was pretty incredible and a well deserved winner of LA Shortfest.
