Philadelphia Jewish Film and Media (PJFM) creates connection and community through Jewish cinema and digital storytelling. PJFM welcomes everyone to engage with Jewish culture and values through its educational and entertaining year-round programs. The organization believes that today’s storytellers are tomorrow’s changemakers, poets, philosophers, and visionaries. While cinema remains the organization’s focus and legacy, PJFM believes it is important to highlight new and innovative ways Jewish stories are created and shared today.
PJFM hosts its annual FALL FEST every November, featuring film screenings and exclusive digital content that highlight filmmakers and digital content creators from around the world. In addition, the organization presents numerous sneak previews, film series, special events, and more YEAR-ROUND.
PLEASE NOTE: if your film or project is selected, you will be personally reached out to if it is being considered for ANY of PJFM's annual programming. NO PHONE CALLS PLEASE.
Any feature narrative or documentary and short film that enters PJFM's FALL FEST is eligible to win the Audience Award. For public screenings, viewers are given ballots upon entering the theater and vote on their way out.
