COPENHAGEN JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL
CJFF is pleased to invite you to our fifth festival from the 15th-18th of January. We are looking forward to meeting our loyal audience who represent our "raison d´être" and the vital core of the festival. A film festival is formed as a unique context, creating the framework for mutual experiences.
Jewish cinema is manifold.
There are well known and new themes. There will be surprises and provocations, tear-jerkers and powerful messages. In spite of the great diversity of themes, we have been able to perceive a common theme, CHANGING TIMES - the presentation of emotions, which for some may transcend what can be mentioned and discussed. New ways of looking at Israel and the future, and above all moving speculation about the relationship between Jews and their surroundings.
