קרן גשר לקולנוע רב תרבותי

The Gesher Multicultural Film Fund operates in order to provide a proper response for the significant gap between the Israeli multicultural society and its representation within the world of cinema and television. These productions have the ability to serve as a display window for the variety of cultural groups, to shatter stereotypes and promote dialogue. Films which place social matters on the public agenda can catalyze improvement and change, and deepen the connection to the roots, to the original culture and to the tradition. The fund supports filmmakers wishing to deal with these themes and cultivates creators from the geographical and social periphery. Its focusing on these fields and its professionalization have made the Gesher film fund a known address for filmmakers, educators, journalists and all those who aspire to promote the multicultural dialogue, the improvement and the social change in Israel.
The Gesher Multicultural Film Fund operates with the support of the Israeli Film Council, the Ministry Culture and Sport.
