ALE BRIDER (All my brothers) a SHORT DOCUMENTARY film
After celebrating 22 years as a group and surviving the pandemic, the members of the San Diego Jewish Men's Choir, and their female director, must come to terms with the fact that they are aging. They need to take steps to ensure the future viability of the group in order to fulfill their mission of preserving and promoting the rich heritage of Jewish music.
"You didn’t know that you wanted to know more about the people surrounding and within the San Diego Jewish Men's Choir @sdjmchoir, but you actually do. This surprisingly intimate film manages to cover the group’s history, interspersed with details of some of the choir’s members and snippets of performances.
This is a mostly charming affair, buoyed by some very strong examples of the group’s vocal prowess at the beginning, near the middle point and at the end. The member vignettes are frequently amusing and enlightening, and in one case a little heartbreaking…. the film, “Ale Brider (All My Brothers)” is worth a look, and a listen." James Kirby - Festival Director, San Diego Short Film Festival (SDSFF)
