As the Seattle Jewish Film Festival celebrates its 18th year, it has a new home under the auspices of the Stroum Jewish Community Center and a greater focus on the arts. Plus, for some reason this year, a fascination with all things French. We’ve got reviews of several of the films that will be screened March 2 through 10 here, but you can visit www.seattlejewishfilmfestival.org to see the full lineup. Vive le filme!
