Frum Dogs of Hendon
Seen as aggressive and dirty, dogs have had a bad reputation in religious Jewish circles for centuries. Dog lovers in Hendon, however, prove that being Frum and having a furry, four-legged best friend are not mutually exclusive.
Underwater With Closed Eyes
Underwater With Closed Eyes tells the story of the film maker’s Great Uncle Michael who is deaf and blind.
Graphic
'Graphic' focuses on the experiences of liberal Jewish students during the recent Israel-Palestine conflict and the subsequent antisemitism encountered on social media, especially through infographics.
Irene
Irene Scheinmann is about an artist who left Iraq for England on Yom Kippur in 1950 under extreme circumstances.
Sadeh
What does it mean to (let land) rest? This is the question on the mind of Felix, a queer climate activist who moves to the first Jewish farm in the UK after becoming disabled.
