The 38th San Francisco Jewish Film Festival (July 19 - August 5, 2018) presents over 150 films, events, parties, panels and performances over three weeks throughout the Bay Area. SFJFF is dedicated to celebrating excellence in independent cinema that showcases the diversity of global Jewish life.
The Festival is teaming up with JSwipe. Use the code JSWIPE38 for a discount on all regularly priced film tickets and $5 off the $40 all-access Next Wave Pass, for film lovers ages 35 and under.
Next Wave is a community of discerning, Bay Area film lovers as well as a platform for the showcase of emerging and established filmmakers whose work explores modern life and identity through a Jewish lens. Next Wave passholders receive all-inclusive Festival passes, attend private VIP receptions and parties with filmmakers, actors, and artists; experience programs and events that step outside the boundaries of film such as live music, comedy, art and, (of course), drink, eat, socialize, and network with other young leaders and fans of the independent arts community.
NEXT WAVE SPOTLIGHT. In 2007 Banksy slips into Palestine to paint on the West Bank Barrier. Someone takes offense at a piece depicting an Israeli soldier checking a donkey’s ID. A local taxi driver decides to cut it off and sell it on eBay. What follows is a story of clashing cultures, art, identity, theft and black market. Like Banksy’s art would be meaningless without its context, so the absence of it would be meaningless without an understanding of the elements that brought his artwork from Bethlehem to a Western auction house, along with the wall it was painted on.
