Yes you can. but you have to use the Amazon “SILK” Browser to access our film festival site and then select the Blue “Watch Films” button to launch the ELEVENT Films Portal.

ELEVENT no longer has an App on the Amazon Fire Stick/Cube Play Store.

However, there is a work-around. Your Fire stick has a browser built in to it called SILK. Open the Silk browser And type in our Jewish film festival website. sacjewishfilmfest.org. On the Silk browser you should select the “Request desktop sites” option by clicking on the Icon on the upper right that looks like an old fashioned TV Set. ( it changes to a PC looking Icon when in the desktop mode.)

Now move your cursor to the Blue “Watch Films Button and select it. That will open the ELEVENT Film Portal. On the right side of the screen you can enter your Email address/Username And your Password, then select the “Log In” Button. That should open up the film player page. If you do not see anything on the screen after a few seconds, check and see that Request Desktop Sites is enabled. That should give allow you to see the films page.
