This year's projects explore the history and contemporary experiences of Morocco's Sephardic Jewish community and the complex dynamics of Jewish-Muslim relations\, as well as the story of the family of Keith Siegel\, who was taken hostage during the October 7 attacks. Through these films\, students examine questions of identity\, m emory\, resilience\, intercommunal relations\, and the ways global events resonate within local communities\, including at Duke and in Durham.\n\n The festival celebrates the creativity and intellectual engagement of Duk e undergraduates while highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of Jewis h Studies. By combining rigorous research with visual storytelling\, stud ents offer fresh perspectives on Jewish experiences past and present and invite audiences to consider how documentary film can deepen our understa nding of history\, culture\, and collective memory.\n\nFollowing the scre enings\, audience members will have an opportunity to engage with the stu dent filmmakers in a discussion about their research\, filmmaking process \, and the broader questions raised by their work.\n\nDinner will precede the event at 6pm in the Ruby Lounge. This event is free and open to the public.
