From tales of profound journeys, captivating real-life mysteries to the unsung champions of yesteryears, the Jewish International Film Festival (23 Oct – 6 Dec) graces Australian screens once again, presenting a curated collection of Jewish cinema's most enchanting and illuminating tales from across the world.
Featuring 55 Australian premiere films from 19 countries, the Festival will deliver a vast program; presenting 30 feature films, 20 documentaries, two series, and six short films alongside a suite of live events to audiences in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart and Gold Coast.
"In a world where stories are our bridge to understanding, this year's JIFF is a testament to the timeless resilience and adaptability of the Jewish spirit," said Jewish International Film Festival Artistic Director, Eddie Tamir. "As we celebrate a remarkable line-up of films, from the deepest roots of Yiddish culture to Australian stories and tales that push boundaries, we're honoured to curate this immersive journey, offering both a reflection on the past and a beacon for the future in the 2023 edition of JIFF."
