UK Jewish Film aims 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.

UK Jewish Film – through its flagship, nationwide, UK Jewish Film Festival (with approx 15,000 visitors), showcases a wide range of feature films, documentaries and shorts, which reflect the diversity of Jewish and Israeli life and culture. Its online festival platform and On Demand service also brings its unique provision of film to many more people. The organisation runs acclaimed education programmes for schools that reach hundreds of young people each year. It commissions at least seven new short films per year reflecting British-Jewish stories, which get premiered at the annual festival.

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 next UK Jewish Film Festival will take place from 7 – 17 November 2024 in London, bringing the best of contemporary Jewish cinema from around the world, to a diverse range of UK audiences. Highlights of the Festival will tour to 14 UK cities until 29th November 2024.
