Now in its 12th year, the South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Festival and Conference
is an annual celebration of film - a weeklong opportunity to view,
discuss, and explore all aspects of film creation and production, from
screenwriting through distribution.
"SXSW helps 'keep Austin weird' by ... celebrating films that go
where no filmmaker (and, in many instances, no other festival) has gone
before." The Independent Film & Video Monthly
