Miami Jewish Film Festival Named One of the Best

For the fourth time, the Miami Jewish Film Festival (MJFF), a program of CAJE | The Center for the Advancement of Jewish Education, a Federation agency, has been included in MovieMaker Magazine’s prestigious list of the “50 Best Film Festivals in the World.” MJFF continues to make history as the only Jewish film festival ever to be named to MovieMaker’s annual list, which highlights festivals that filmmakers and audiences alike regard as transformative experiences. “We are deeply honored to once again be recognized by MovieMaker Magazine,” said Igor Shteyrenberg, MJFF Executive Director. “This accolade is a tribute to the thousands of supporters, artists and community members who believe in our mission to bridge cultures, foster dialogue and amplify Jewish voices through film.” Now in its 29th year, MJFF is the largest Jewish film program ever presented, drawing more than 58,500 attendees across South Florida and beyond.
