UK JEWISH FILM LTD 

The charity's objects are, through films, to build an understanding across communities, combat anti Semitism, racism and educate audiences across the UK about Jewish culture and heritage. This is achieved by screening of Jewish themed films across the UK, an annual film festival and educational projects all year-round. The charity also offers Holocaust education workshops for schools and colleges.
