It’s a wrap! After days of screening films and television shows, the 2023 SXSW Film & TV Festival has come to a close. The festival began as an indie event in 1987 and has grown to become a premier platform for introducing new ideas and emerging talent to the world.

With star-studded world premieres like Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves and a surprise showing of John Wick: Chapter 4, the festival showcased the best in film and TV. Beyond the glitz and glamour, the festival presented diverse and thought-provoking works, from narrative and documentary features to short films and extended reality experiences, highlighting the power of film and TV to entertain, inform, and inspire with headlining films such as Parachute, Flamin’ Hot, and Joy Ride.

As the festival continues to evolve, it remains a hub of innovation and creativity, launching the careers of emerging filmmakers and introducing the world to the next big things in entertainment. Winners of the festival’s competitions were announced at the Paramount Theater, and Company 3 proudly contributed to 5 of those projects.
