The JFI Completion Grants Program provides finishing funds to emerging and established filmmakers for original stories that promote thoughtful consideration of Jewish history, life, culture, memory, and identity. Established in 2020, JFI has awarded nearly $200,000 since the program's inception. Projects eligible for consideration include narratives, documentaries, shorts, episodic programs, or web series. JFI Completion Grants respond to a critical lack of funding opportunities available for independent media projects that pursued expansive, nuanced interpretations of Jewish topics. JFI Completion Grants recognize projects that demonstrate an ability or ambition to entertain and engage us, to build bridges between communities, to turn conversation into action, and to reframe understanding of Jewish cultures and identities.
Application guidelines and examples of supported projects are available below.
