Film with ties to Teaneck to be presented at TIFF:
The 2016 Teaneck International Film Festival will include the documentary, “Carvalho’s Journey,” which made its world premiere at the San Francisco Jewish Film Festival in 2015. A real life 19th century American western adventure story, Carvalho’s Journey, directed by award-winning filmmaker Steve Rivo, introduces audiences to Solomon Nunes Carvalho (1815-1897), an observant Sephardic Jew born in Charleston, S.C., and his life as a groundbreaking explorer and artist.
