For over 40 years, the Seattle International Film Festival has dropped over 400 movies over three weeks in  theaters across the city. Starring You explores how the audience plays an integral role in the overall cinema experience. SIFF is a festival that is all about the audience.

Sure, every attendee will come and see some amazing stories in film. But films aren’t the only stories that happen here. When you walk through the doors, it feels like you’re smack dab in the middle of a fun, memorable story of your own. You’ll go through emotional journeys, plot twists, conflict, character arcs, a climax, and you’ll be a different person when you leave. A night at SIFF isn’t just an event, it’s a movie, starring you!
