The educational program of the 5th MJFF will include lectures, discussions and Q&A.

The 5th Moscow Jewish Film Festivals will become a platform for lectures, discussions and Q&A sessions with filmmakers. Among the events there will be a discussion of documentary film «Carl Laemmle» (directed by James L. Freedman, 2019) with film critic Vasily Koretsky; Q&A with lawyer Alexander Dobrovinsky following the screening of «Advocate» (directed by Rachel Leah Jones, 2019); lecture by philologist Dmitry Zicer about assimilation and search for one’s self, coordinated with the the screening of «Here and Now» (directed by Roman Shumunov, 2018); lecture that explores how art, history and national identity intersect in galleries and visitors’ hearts, which will take place after the screening of «The Museum» (directed by Ran Tal, 2017) with Marina Loshak, Director of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts.

Natalie Shneiderman, Director of Global Grantmaking of the Genesis Philanthropy Group:

Supporting the Moscow Jewish Film Festival not only became a good tradition for the Genesis Foundation but also enables us to contribute to the cultural Jewish life of the capital. The Festival itself has grown significantly during the time of our partnership, whether it comes to its program, the number of its new partners or its audience members. This year we are intentionally supporting the educational component of the Festival, which accompanies film screenings and gives audiences the opportunity to meet filmmakers, film experts and many other interesting speakers. All in all, to discuss and interpret things that one sees, reads or lives through is an essential element of the Jewish tradition, which we as a Foundation are very keen on preserving.

The educational program of the Festival is created with the support of the Genesis Philanthropy Group.
