Leave your thoughts about Re-Emerging: The Jews of Nigeria.
| NPRElla TaylorIt's a fun fact that actor Forest Whitaker traces his roots to the Igbo tribe, but that belongs in another film. Re-emerging speaks for itself as an uplifting portrait of an exuberant subculture that doesn't just practice its faith — it revels in it. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckAlthough diffuse at times, this documentary delivers a vibrant portrait of a fascinating subculture. |
| Village VoiceRob StaegerIn the face of the authenticity of Shmuel's faith, the evidence for or against the Judaic heritage of the Igbo is beside the point. |
| The New York TimesRachel Saltz“Re-emerging” can be pedestrian as filmmaking, though it remains interesting as long as it remains in Nigeria. |
