On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Judeo-Cinema Nights is a project to familiarise international audience at Oxford with the unique films created by Jewish people about their experiences, identities, and struggles, with special attention to less represented communities, such as the Jews of the MENA region, central and east Asia, and north and east Africa. It is hosted by The Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies.
Every term we will screen 3-4 films. Michaelmas 2024-25 will focus on the works of filmmaker and actress Ronit Elkabetz, who was an active mizrahi feminist of moroccan heritage, and often brought the issues faced by moroccan and Maghrebi Jews in nascent Israel into her films. This term we will screen the Trilogy of Viviane Amsalem, three movies which focus on issues such as kinship, religion, tradition, and gender.
