JFilm Festival

Film Pittsburgh’s JFilm Festival, Pittsburgh’s largest Jewish cultural event, runs May 2-12, both in person and online – so you get the best of both worlds! The festival will showcase 16 engaging and thought-provoking, Jewish-themed, independent feature films from around the world that you won’t see anywhere else. Highlights include opening night’s Pittsburgh premiere of Left Alone Rhapsody: The Musical Memoir of Pianist John Bayless at the newly restored Carnegie Music Hall in Oakland, which will be followed by a Q&A with Bayless and director Stewart Schulman, a John Bayless mini concert, and a dessert reception (special ticket price applies); and the films Remembering Gene Wilder about the great comedic actor; Shari and Lamb Chop about the beloved children’s performer; and The Catskills, a nostalgic look at that region’s much-loved resorts.
