[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=""] Click to read this article on Zolima From 8 to 16 November, the 2025 Hong Kong Jewish Film Festival will show 22 films telling Jewish stories, including documentaries, comedies and dramas. Description The 2025 Hong Kong Jewish Film Festival will run from 8 to 16 November, showing 22 films telling Jewish stories, made by directors mostly from Israel, Europe and North America. The films include documentaries, comedies, and dramas. A film to look out for is Poland Versus History, a documentary exploring the complicity of local Polish people in the 1941 Jedwabne pogrom and how the Polish state narrative appropriated and sanitised this massacre. Another highlight is Swedishkayt: YidLife Crisis in Stockholm, featuring the Canadian comedy duo YidLife Crisis, exploring the 250 years of Jewish life in Sweden. In The Stamp Thief, the documentary director poses as a filmmaker shooting a fictional movie to try to retrieve stamp collections stolen from concentration camp victims. Screenings will be held at Emperor Cinemas Times Square, Golden Scene Cinema and Emperor Cinemas Entertainment Building. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]...
