Jews Defending Jews: CST Film Screening

Thursday 22nd May | Doors open at 7:30pm, Film begins at 8:00pm

CST Alumni and Stanmore & Canons Park Synagogue warmly invite you to a compelling evening featuring a special screening of Jews Defending Jews — a powerful and deeply moving documentary from award-winning filmmaker David Herman.

This must-see film uncovers the proud, often overlooked story of Jewish self-defence in the UK. Spanning nearly a century, from the grassroots resistance of the 1930s to the vital work of CST today, Jews Defending Jews weaves together rare archival footage, striking imagery, and first-hand testimonies to tell a story of courage, community, and quiet heroism.

Whether you’re familiar with this history or discovering it for the first time, this screening offers a rare opportunity to reflect on the legacy of those who stood up in the face of hate — and those who continue to do so. 

Admission is free, booking required.
