Boston Jewish Film Festival
Our 38th Annual Boston Jewish Film Festival brings eleven days of powerful storytelling to screens across Greater Boston, with 11 films from 7 countries. Now in its new home at the JCC! Tickets will be on sale soon.
Celebrating Jewish Stories On-Screen
This year's Boston Jewish Film Festival lineup spotlights women fighting against the odds, from a landmark abortion trial in 1970s France to a mother's decades-long search for her missing daughter, alongside stories of righteous courage that challenge injustice and refuse to look away. Alongside these urgent narratives, the Festival continues its tradition of thrilling dramas, raucous comedies, and unforgettable conversations with the filmmakers and artists who bring these stories to life.
Tickets will be available soon — check back here for registration and schedule updates.
