excited to finally share that the film I’ve been laboring on for many years, with the help of so many people, will be premiering at the @sfjewishfilm festival this summer. Feeling excited, hopeful, (and anxious) about the conversations that can emerge from this film - and I’m finally ready to share it with the world. Thank you to @sfjewishfilm for believing in the film and providing this platform. link in bio for tickets, pls share with all your friends in the Bay Area, and I hope to bring the film soon to a city near you. Write up from the festival below:

In this searing portrait, filmmaker Simon Mendes examines the towering and deeply complicated shadow cast by Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, the “Singing Rabbi,” whose music transformed Jewish worship across denominations and became woven into the fabric of the Jewish people. Through the perspective of his daughter, singer Neshama Carlebach—who spent years carrying forward her father’s teachings and music—the film traces a painful reckoning that emerged after numerous women publicly accused Carlebach of sexual abuse following his death in 1994. Haunted by revelations about the man she idolized, Neshama and an entire community are forced to confront the difficult question: what do you do when someone revered as a holy teacher has also caused profound harm? With compassion and complexity, Mendes crafts a thoughtful exploration of faith and accountability, capturing a community and a family still grappling with how to reconcile the comfort and ubiquity of Carlebach’s music with the disturbing allegations surrounding his legacy. —Jesse Knight

To all the creatives out there: all the criticisms, all the opinions, all the rejection - it’s fuel for the fire! Be true to your voice and keep grinding! I rewrote UNDER THE BRIDGE for years until this happened! 9,100 entries across ten genres. 12 industry pro readers throughout the judging process. Top 10 Finalist in Thriller/Horror! 🤯🤞🏼🤌🏼

Shoutout to my producing partner Josh Green @jag289 who’s been with me the whole way!
