The Boston Jewish Film Festival presents the best contemporary films from around the world on Jewish themes at its annual Festival and throughout the year. Through features, shorts, documentaries, and conversations with visiting artists, the Festival explores Jewish identity, the current Jewish experience and the richness of Jewish culture in relation to a diverse modern world.

The annual Festival is a non-competitive event, although since 2002 we have offered audience members the opportunity to cast ballots for favorite Documentary and Feature film and, in 2006, favorite Short Subject. We screen international and American independent films and videos that highlight the Jewish experience; deal with themes of Jewish culture/heritage/history; or are of particular interest to the Jewish community. The Festival presents narrative, documentary, animated and experimental works. Projects must be completed in 35mm, 16mm, Beta or 1/2 inch. They can be of any length. We ask that films have not previously screened in the Boston area; in this way, we bring important work to Boston that might not ordinarily be seen here.
