9th Annual Nashville Jewish Film Festival

The Nashville Jewish Film Festival (NJFF) celebrates its 9th year of bringing educational, entertaining and thought-provoking Jewish-themed films to the historic Belcourt Theatre in Nashville, Tennessee. Each year the NJFF aims to create a forum for the wider Nashville community to understand the complexity of issues surrounding Jewish life in contemporary society. The films chosen each year are meant to demonstrate the breadth and depth of the Jewish cultural, religious, historical, and social conditions of the modern era. Along with special guests, panels, and Opening and Closing Night celebrations, the NJFF is a six-day event dedicated to the awareness and celebration of Jewish life in contemporary society. In 2008, NJFF dedicated its program to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the state of Israel with such award winning films as "Noodle" and "Strangers." The 2009 NJFF will return to focus on the broad scope of the Jewish experience from all parts of the globe.
