For those of you who plan to attend the Jewish Film Festival on campus this weekend, I've got new details about Sunday's line-up. The program’s continuation on Sunday will include one special 18-minute short by Tiffany Shlain called “The Tribe.” This insightful short gained her a "Women Shaping the 21st Century" honor by Newsweek. "The Tribe," a movie that studies the historical relation between Barbie and Jewish people, was the most-downloaded film on iTunes at one point. See her on YouTube: She discusses her filmmaking on a Sundance program; here's the trailer for "The Tribe" (a lot of Barbie dolls); and Shlain found the Webby Award, so watch her here.
