SDFF30 / It's Over

Oof.

It’s over. Close to 200 films and right around 150 filmmakers came through town during the past 11 days (and some very long nights) and I’m always a bit depressed when it is all over. I’m heading out of town tomorrow for a break and some rest but will be posting some of the happenings from SDFF30 over the next several days. For the moment, here are the award winners:
