“We just had a record year with packed houses showcasing over 200 films and plenty of seminars, panels and tributes,” SBIFF Executive Director Roger Durling said. “And we hosted the eventual 2023 Oscar winners from 18 film categories, proving once again that the love of watching films in person and celebrating cinema is alive and well in Santa Barbara.”
