Hosted at Classic Cinemas in Elsternwick, the festival will bring you an exhilarating program featuring over 40 Israeli and Jewish-themed films, including 50 Australian premiere screenings.

Closing the festival will be an affectionate insight into the Jewish community’s comedic greats — including Jerry Stiller, Jerry Lewis and Jerry Seinfeld — When Comedy Went to School.
Other cinematic highlights including Broadway documentary Broadway Musicals: A Jewish Legacy, Polish WWII drama Aftermath, zombie apocalypse Cannon Fodder and Claude Lanzmann’s latest documentary, The Last of the Unjust.
