Movie News: Austin Jewish Film Festival Begins October 31 and Includes In Person and Virtual Options

The 22nd Austin Jewish Film Festival will be held in person from October 31 to November 10, 2024, followed by an online session from November 15 to 24.

The Austin Jewish Film Festival’s 2024 lineup is available. In addition to viewing the films, three of which are world premieres, there will be Q&A events with filmmakers from around the globe and parties, all conveniently located at the Dell Jewish Community Center.

Noteworthy events include the opening night film Guns and Moses with visiting filmmaker and screenwriter Sal Litvak.

One of their many free programs will be the world premiere of Seeds for Change, directed by Austin’s Mike O’Brien.

Something entertaining and different will be a Yaniv Popup Club based on a popular Hasidic card game, following the screening of the new comedy Yaniv, along with co-screenwriter and lead actor, Ben Ducoff.

The closing night film will feature Dani Menkin’s powerful new documentary Colleyville with Menkin (and possibly other special guests) in person. These are just a few highlights.
