In 2023, the South by Southwest Film Festival (SXSW) in Austin, TX returned to an all in-person event and while I was unable to be there formally, luckily there was still a virtual option with a healthy selection of interesting titles of feature films and (best of all) wild shorts that kept me plenty busy. I split them up into two volumes — click on the links below to go to their respective pages and capsule reviews for all of the films listed.
