The All-Israeli Film Experience in this Unprecedented Year: April 4-14, 2024

The Chicago Festival of Israeli Cinema is one of only ten all-Israeli programs in all of
North America. The festival screens a mix of award-winning films of different subject
matters and genres to spread a love and appreciation of contemporary Israeli culture
through the magic of film. The goal of festival is to show Israel and Israelis in an authentic light. The films we screen keep our viewers current on events and trends in Israel. These exceptional
