AUDIENCE REACTIONS

This is an unbelievably gorgeous film. It's so moving, meaningful, and heartfelt. I absolutely love the mixed media work (even a dancer!) in the film. It's not surprising that the film is doing so well in the festival circuit, you deserve every accolade.

Hey! Just wanted to say I saw Judy's Thoughts yesterday at CUFF and I can't stop thinking about it. That film made me cry, it connected me with my grandmother in a way I think I never quite understood before. Really powerful work, and I hope the film does very well, and am excited to see more of your work!

The jury honours this film for its incredibly powerful exploration of end of life, and for being such a creative departure from the filmmaker's previous film.
