AUSTIN, Texas — Incidents of antisemitism have increased, so many in the Jewish community are taking the time to open up educational discourse through film. Austin Jewish Film Festival director David Finkel is making sure the mics are in working order as there are powerful and important conversations to be had.
Among the important themes for this year’s Jewish and Israeli films is a rise in global antisemitism and a desire to share positive aspects of their community. “We want to show positive aspects of the community, not just in Austin but many different places in the world,” Naim said.
