The 12th annual Boulder Jewish Film Festival features 13 films from around the world and our always popular shorts program, inviting audiences to engage in a meaningful conversation about the Jewish experience. All films this year are in the Boedecker Theater or the Grace Gamm Theater. Showings do sell out; purchasing early is advisable.

The festival opens on Sunday, November 10 with two screenings of a surprise hit comedy from Sundance and Telluride, “A Real Pain,” starring Kieran Culkin and Jesse Eisenberg – who also wrote and directed – as rancorous cousins looking for their roots in Poland.

The festival closes Sunday, November 17 with the most popular film currently on the festival circuit, “Seven Blessings.” Focused on a Moroccan wedding celebration, this comic family drama concludes our three-film series exploring Sephardic life and culture.
