The San Diego International Jewish Film Festival (SDIJFF) presents the 5th Annual Joyce Forum Jewish Short Film Festival from Oct. 14-16.

The Joyce Forum Jewish Short Film Festival is a three-day stand-alone virtual and in-person festival, featuring 26 short films from the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, France, Israel, Norway, and Turkey. Films are arranged into five distinct programs with a few introductions from filmmakers.

This year’s festival will be both virtual and in-person at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center (LFJCC) David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre, 4126 Executive Drive. For a full list of films, visit jfjsff2022.eventive.org/films.

Tickets are now on sale – $18 per program and $15 for LFJCC members. The Joyce Forum All-Festival Pass is $75 and $65 for LFJCC members, and it includes both in-person and virtual access. The event is organized by a committee of dedicated volunteers, led by Film Selection Committee Co-Chairs Francine Ginsburg and Ronni Udoff. The festival is named for founding chair Joyce Axelrod, who is still an enthusiastic film supporter.

Both the short film festival and the SDIJFF are currently seeking underwriters. To donate, visit lfjcc.org/givefilm. For more information on the LFJCC, visit lfjcc.org.
