Director's Message
17 Years. 17 years of what the Hollywood Reporter called “The Greatest Little Film Festival on Earth”. I couldn’t be more proud of how far this festival has come, and of my partner, Trinity Houston, and the Idyllwild team who have made it all possible. We look forward to seeing you all at Idyllwild 2026.
