The Malvin and Greta Roesch New Jersey Jewish Film Festival is one of the premiere Jewish cultural events in the state. Founded in 2000 by Caren and Herbert Ford and based at JCC MetroWest, the film festival was renamed in 2025 to recognize a generous annual grant awarded to JCC MetroWest from the Malvin and Greta Roesch Film Festival Endowment Fund of the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater MetroWest NJ. The Malvin and Greta Roesch New Jersey Jewish Film Festival features first-run Israeli, American, and international films of Jewish interest, followed by thought-provoking speakers and discussions. It fosters the growth of Jewish culture, identity, and community in New Jersey by sharing the work of Jewish artists with a wide and growing audience. In addition to our springtime film festival, JCC MetroWest offers J-Films programming throughout the year.
