The Boston Jewish Film Festival

Boston Jewish Film (BJF) celebrates the richness and diversity of Jewish experience, identity and culture through our film festivals, work in education and year-round programming.

Now entering its 38th year, the Boston Jewish Film Festival (BJFF), held each November, attracts movie lovers from Greater Boston and beyond to see and talk about great films from the U.S. and around the globe: universal films that explore topics, individuals and/or themes connected to Jewish life and experience in an increasingly multi-dimensional world. Presenting more than 30 screenings at venues including art houses and museums throughout Greater Boston, the BJFF has welcomed more than 300,000 audience members, filmmakers, actors and guests from around the world to watch films and to engage in inspiring conversations.
