Just saw the brilliant movie Shttl, a Yiddish language, single take, black and white portrayal of a 1941 Ukrainian village before the Nazi holocaust. A wonderful rendition of a transitional period, and all the lively debates within the community.

Panama is El Puente Del Mundo—the bridge of the world—and I know how Panamanians have had to fight for every bit of freedom.
When I'm Mayor, Little Panama will finally get the recognition it deserves.
