Celluloid Soup, Melbourne's only Jewish Short Film Festival, is an initiative of the Jewish Museum of Australia (JMA). This sensational festival runs every two years and is one of the highlights of the Melbourne cultural scene.

Incorporating Jewish themes into film sparks dialogue, and uses Judaism as a point of reference for people to express their points of view. Whether the films we screen refer to Jewish concepts, history or culture, Celluloid Soup benefits Australia's cultural landscape immensely. This festival is an important cultural event for all filmmakers, and we encourage people of all abilities to express themselves through the medium of film. The Festival is for people of all cultural, religious and professional backgrounds and promotes a deeper understanding of how Jewish issues relate to the world as a whole.
