Thank you and Good Night!
What an incredibly exciting, inspiring, and wild weekend of film, comedy and parties! We doubled the number of films, venues, visiting filmmakers, and parties this year. And all of you that traveled from near and far (Los Angeles, New York City, Austin, Santa Barbara, Seattle, San Francisco, Rhode Island, Sacramento and Downieville) know exactly how much fun it was! You just can't beat mornings and afternoons spent swimming down at the Yuba River followed by an evening of exceptional independent art-house films. On top of the fantastic cinema, creative and professional connections were made and new friendships were forged, which will hopefully result in some new projects that we will have the privilege of screening next year! We couldn't have done it without you fine festival goer or the support of so many incredible sponsors, venues, local businesses, and volunteers.
Many heartfelt thanks to you all!
