The Mission of the Minneapolis Jewish Film Festival is to foster a stronger sense of identity among the Jewish community and reach out to the broader diverse community at large to educate and increase awareness and understanding of Jewish culture through film. The MPLSJFF endeavors to present the best feature films, documentaries and shorts from around the world on themes of Jewish culture and identity. It is through contemporary film that we move beyond our usual boundaries to experience different ideas, cultures and lifestyles.
