About Us

The Vancouver Jewish Film Festival is the longest running Jewish film festival in Canada. We have an established track record of being one of the best festivals of its type in North America.

The Festival is inclusive and encourages multi-cultural interaction and presents high quality entertainment. Comedies, feature dramas, thrillers, hot and timely documentaries and whimsical shorts are programmed to appeal to a wide audience base. We select unique interesting films that are not yet in general distribution or may never reach North American cinemas that reflect the interests and concerns of general audiences in Vancouver.

Vision Statement

Our mission is to educate, entertain and celebrate the diversity of Jewish life and culture. The Vancouver Jewish Film Festival (VJFF) brings the best contemporary Jewish films from around the world to Vancouver audiences. Through the presentation of film media and participation of filmmakers, screenwriters, actors and educators; VJFF promotes the discussion of relevant issues and provides an inclusive forum to explore topics within and beyond the Jewish community. The VJFF strongly supports the work of Canadian Independent filmmakers whose work explores Jewish themes and issues.
