It’s been an amazing 12 days. We kicked off our 25th Anniversary Festival on May 5th with a spectacular Opening Night Gala. The stars came out to show their support—celebrities, filmmakers, sponsors and fans of Israeli cinema gathered for our historic celebration.

Now we’re just days away from our Closing Night Screening on May 19th where we will announce the Panavision Audience Choice Winner and screen the award-winning film, The Matchmaker, by popular demand!
