Ann Arbor JCC Jewish Film Festival Returns to the Michigan Theater May 15-19, 2011

The Jewish Film Festival is an annual event celebrating film and the impact and influence which Jewish culture has played on current movies and filmmakers of today.  It also provides a forum for discussion about films from around the world that illuminate Jewish issues and principles.  Our goal is to enhance a sense of community and inclusion for a broad range of audience members.  The festival is held over four to five days at the Michigan Theater on Liberty.  The Ann Arbor Jewish Film Festival will be celebrating it's 9th year in 2010.  In general, three movies are shown per day with subjects ranging from family, the Holocaust, Jewish people living around the globe and much more.  There is something to see for everyone during the festival.  So grab your popcorn and we'll save a seat for you at the movies!

All films and programs are shown at the Michigan Theater, 603 East Liberty, Ann Arbor.  Tickets are available at the Michigan Theater Box Office, $10 each or a Film Festival pass to all of the Ann Arbor films can be purchased for $70 for members and $75 for non-members.

The Ann Arbor Jewish Film Festival is made possible thanks to the Michael and Patricia Levine Philanthropic Foundation, Charles and Rita Gelman and the Michigan Theater.   Additionally, the Ann and Jules Doneson Film Festival Endowment Fund has been recently established to help insure the festival's longevity.
