Like a pearl formed through resilience and transformation, the Seattle Jewish Film Festival has spent 30 years illuminating powerful stories that shine through historyโs darkest moments and celebrate the triumphs of Jewish life, culture, and cinema.
As the Pacific Northwestโs largest and longest-running Jewish event, SJFF has premiered 1,000 cinematic gems in our three-decade run. In theaters + virtually, SJFF showcases 30 films for our 30th anniversary.
The Stroum Jewish Community Center is proud to present this preeminent public arts program and community gathering place to deepen comprehension, inspire connections, and strengthen community through global Jewish cinema and conversation. More than a film festival, SJFF serves as a vibrant cultural cornerstone for all.
