The New York Jewish Film Festival (NYJFF) is an annual festival that features a wide array of international films exploring themes related to the Jewish experience. The Jewish Museum and The Film Society of Lincoln Center work in partnership to present the NYJFF every January. Since its creation in 1992, the festival has more than doubled in size and scope. Screenings are typically followed by discussions with directors, actors and film experts. Audience participation is encouraged. The festival celebrates the richness and diversity of the Jewish experience and explores Jewish identity. The NYJFF seeks to broaden perceptions of the Jewish experience from a multitude of perspectives and nationalities. It presents an opportunity to discover new and challenging films that are often otherwise hard to find. == Festival highlights == Key works and noteworthy presentations of the past few years have included: *The N.Y.C. premiere of ''Koch'' (2013 Festival), directed by Neil Barsky. *The N.Y. premiere of ''Hannah Arendt'' (2013 Festival), directed by Margarethe von Trotta. *The N.Y.C. premiere of ''AKA Doc Pomus'' (2013 Festival), directed by Will Hechter and Peter Miller. * The World premiere of ''Strangers No More'' (2011 Festival), a short film directed by Karen Goodman and Kirk Simon, and nominated for an Academy Award. * The N.Y. premiere of ''Mahler on the Couch'' (2011 Festival), directed by father-son duo Percy Adlon and Felix Adlon. * The N.Y. premiere of ''The Matchmaker'' (2011 Festival), directed by Avi Nesher. * The U.
