We've done it!

The 46-minute version of our documentary film is finally ready for viewing! We're booking preview screenings in February and March, and we are also fundraising to complete our full broadcast-length version for a worldwide rollout this summer, 2017. More than two years of diligent hard work have led Judy and Robin to this long awaited moment - when we can begin to share our work with YOU. We think you'll be captivated by the endearing characters and their compelling stories in this account of Jewish refugees who escaped Nazi persecution by fleeing to Cuba during WWII. We will be updating our screening schedule on the film website as new dates are confirmed.
