  • Beautiful and moving...Chiten has told Kamenetz's story with the utmost sensitivity, grace, humor

    Los Angeles Times

  • [A] knock-out documentary

    Boston Globe

  • Chiten allows the film to unfold like the petals of a lotus until the jewel-and the Jew-within is revealed. It's a testament to her artistry that THE JEW IN THE LOTUS is wry, funny, deeply moving and utterly compelling without once seeming preachy or sappy.
