The secret about Sonoma having one of the Bay Area’s finest film festivals has been uncovered. It’s a cinematic treasure, worth the drive from wherever you reside — Randy Myers, MSN, San Jose Mercury News and President, San Francisco Film Critics Circle.

Going to the Sonoma International Film Festival has been on my bucket list for years. Needless to say, I was ecstatic when I was invited to attend. And I loved every moment of it - from the opening reception until the closing night's film rolled it's credits. — Chef Joanne Weir
SIFF brings in the best talent that Hollywood and the world have to offer while staying true to the small-town charm of the Valley of the Moon. To be a part of it is to fall in love with the movies all over again, in one of the most beautiful spots on earth. — J.D. Heyman
