I can only say how much it means not only for us as the film makers but to the locals as I myself am one of them that  we have witnessed history in the making to be apart of  the fesitvals first year ever inaugural is just one of the many bridges  of vision  that and Robert and Margrit Biever Mondavi layed out before us so long ago. We salute you and applaud you, Napa Valley Film Festival. Many years of joy and success.

Reviews: 
Here is what Chef Michael Chiarello of Bottega has to say about La Estancia:

A special point of pride to me is the film La Estancia, a powerful documentary about five migrant farm-working families, because the filmmaking team is part of my family here at Bottega Restaurant. I am grateful to all the artists who create meaningful and entertaining films, and to the very hard-working team who made this Inaugural Napa Valley Film festival happen! Now sit back in an old Barrel Room, grab some parmesan-truffle popcorn and a glass of Old Vine Zin, and enjoy the show. — Michael
