The JCA’s Molly Curren Rowles spoke with MJFF Executive Director Barbara Merson about the behind-the-scenes process of MJFF, community engagement, and even belly dancing on J Talks.
J Talks is a video/podcast interview series produced by the Jewish Community Alliance “to highlight the voices of community leaders and amazing people here in Southern Maine.”
I think we have a pretty good idea of what people in Maine would like to see. Very often, it’s not a question of what Jewish people would like to see or non-Jewish people would like to see. It’s just – is it a good film, is it interesting, does it stimulate thought. I would say in general Maine audiences like to think.
