With movies set in locations around the world, this year's SF Jewish Film Festival could easily double as an international film fest. The 28th edition features cinematic works about cross-cultural love affairs (opening night's Strangers), Canadian families (Emotional Arithmetic, starring Susan Sarandon and Max von Sydow), LGBT lives in Jerusalem, and an Israeli Hebrew-immersion school with students from five continents. Of special note are the films of Péter Forgács — this year's Freedom of Expression Award recipient — that preserve the stories of European Jewish families through their home movies.
