UK Jewish Film Festival

UK Jewish Film is dedicated to developing an environment in which Jewish film entertains, educates and enlightens diverse audiences in the UK and internationally.

At the core of UK Jewish Film’s values is the notion that film is universal. It crosses cultures and divides and can unite, engage and educate diverse audiences through the telling of cinematic stories that provide stimulating, interesting and unique views of Jewish and Israeli life and culture.

At UK Jewish Film, we aim to develop a culture where Jewish film is recognised and enjoyed by the widest possible audience and to bring Jewish-related film to the heart of British culture.

Through our flagship event UK Jewish Film Festival (with approx 15,000 visitors), our festival in Geneva, as well as our 450 year-round screenings and previews at venues across London and the UK,  UK Jewish Film showcases a wide range of feature films, documentaries and shorts, which reflect the diversity of Jewish and Israeli life and culture. Since our inception, the UK Jewish Film Festival has welcomed over 500,000 visitors. Our popular On Demand platform brings its unique provision of film to many more. The organisation also runs acclaimed education programmes that reach hundreds of young people each year.

UK Jewish Film’s work encourages pride in and knowledge of Jewish culture amongst younger generations and promotes understanding and awareness towards Jewish and Israeli people and culture.

The 27th UK Jewish Film Festival will take place from 9 – 19 November 2023 in cinemas and 20th -27th November online, bringing the best of contemporary Jewish cinema from around the world, to a diverse range of UK audiences.
