For the past month, Consuelo Alba and her small programming team at WFF have been working on moving part of the festival to an online format. With the help of longtime partners Digital NEST, they were able to organize the Virtual Watsonville Film Festival, which includes a series of free online film screenings and live discussions with filmmakers.
“[WFF] has always been about connecting with the community,” Alba said. “We wanted to find a way to keep engaging with each other despite everything… To stay connected against all odds.”
