Audience Awards



The
freedom of speech is safeguarded in the constitution of
the Hong Kong Jewish Film Festival.

So tell us what you really think!



The HKJFF Audience Awards are presented to the favourite feature and favourite short films screened during the Festival, as selected by our audiences. These Awards give audience members the opportunity to voice their opinions about the films presented. More importantly, the Awards give filmmakers the recognition they deserve and the feedback they desire. Festival Awards play a very important role in a filmmaker's total portfolio when their film is submitted for festival competitions, distribution, and marketing. Our Audience Awards are announced every year in our Reel News e-Newsletter the day after our Festival ends.
