Jewish Film Institute

The Jewish Film Institute’s mission is to inspire communities in San Francisco and around the world to expand their understanding of Jewish life through film, media, and dialogue. Through a range of programs and initiatives, JFI celebrates the full spectrum of Jewish identities; nurtures and build connections within and beyond the Jewish community; provides multiple platforms for open dialogue; promotes an evolving definition of what constitutes Jewish film and media; introduces new voices and emerging talent; seeks excellence, originality and innovation; champions freedom of expression; reveals diverse points of view; and honors depth and complexity over formula.
