NCJF’s first priority continues to be
the preservation and restoration of
rare and endangered nitrate and
acetate films. NCJF has long been
recognized as a leader in the revival
of Yiddish cinema, rescuing watershed
films like THE DYBBUK (1937) and TEVYE
(1939) from virtual oblivion. By producing and distributing pristine film and DVD editions of such historic works with new English subtitles, NCJF effectively reintroduces modern audiences to a unique cultural and cinematic experience.
