Each film will be available to watch at a specific location on a particular date. Tickets for the festival are $9 for a single ticket, $15 for a household and $60 for a festival pass for all of the films scheduled to be shown.

This effort is sponsored by the USA College of Arts and Sciences. To learn more, see trailers and buy tickets, visit mobilejewishfederation.org.
