The 26th annual Milwaukee Jewish Film Festival opens in October. From October 15-19, film aficionados can watch movies at the Marcus North Shore Cinema in Mequon and then continue to stream selections at home through October 29.

Carrying on the rich tradition of celebrating the finest in Jewish film and filmmaking, the 2023 Milwaukee Jewish Film Festival features a variety of intriguing and engaging movies from around the world. This year’s festival includes thought-provoking films from France, Germany, Israel, Italy and United States.
