Whilst UK Jewish Film Festival is all about films with Jewish themes by both Jewish and non-Jewish directors, this year we have decided to introduce a number of films into our Programme which highlight the work of Jewish directors and actors. These much acclaimed films, which do not have a Jewish theme, deserve our attention nevertheless and we have invited them to our 2014 Festival to celebrate Jewish talent in the international film industry. 3 GALAS 5 Sun 16 Nov 7pm Sponsored by Jeffrey Gruder QC and Gillian Gruder OTHER SCREENINGS ODEON MUSWELL HILL 2014 – Hebrew with English Talya Lavie who bide their time pushing paper and playing computer games, counting down the minutes until they can return to civilian life.
