SBIFF Accepting Rosebud Applications

Four years ago, the Santa Barbara International Film Festival added another facet to its swath of offerings — an educational experience for 10 area college students to immerse themselves in the world of film. Called Rosebud, the program features myriad opportunities, including SBIFF’s Cinema Society's 20+ screenings and Q&As with the filmmakers (Sept.-Dec.; small-group film analysis discussions led by SBIFF Executive Director Roger Durling; and the chance to research and help develop study guides for films from the Cinema Society slate. Applications are now being accepted through August 31, 11:59 p.m. The program is free. See sbiff.org/rosebud .
