Queer Jewish Cinema

Arts, TV & Film

This week on Out Takes, we put the spotlight on the Jewish International Film Festival (JIFF) by turning our attention to queer Jewish cinema. And here’s a spoiler: there’s a ton of it! From Boys in the Band to nearly everything by Eytan Fox, queer cinema has often borrowed from the Jewish oeuvre to emphasise its preoccupation with otherness and the outsider. 

Our guests were JIFF director Eddie Tamir, and film makers Ofir Raul Graizer and Su Goldfish. Graizer is the director of THE CAKEMAKER, an exploration of grief and desire that transcends geographic, cultural and sexual boundaries. Goldfish is the director of THE LAST GOLDFISH, which chronicles her personal search for meaning and understanding. Both THE CAKEMAKER and THE LAST GOLDFISH screened at JIFF 2017.
