The 68th San Francisco International Film Festival prominently featured the city's unique culture and local pride, including tributes to local filmmaker Chris Columbus and a closing screening of 'Outerlands', filmed predominantly in local districts. Columbus showcased his films shot in San Francisco and expressed his love for the city in a recent Q&A. After pandemic-related difficulties, this year’s festival expanded to 11 days, reflecting a resurgence in local film culture that also allowed for increased programming and participation.
"I think San Francisco has gotten a bad rap over the last couple of years... There are so many things that have changed, but in a good way, since the '90s."
"As a curator, it was really fun to play again... to be able to have the room to add a lot of films to the international and local lineup."
