Welcome to the Seventh Annual Ojai Film Festival
Thursday, October 12 through Sunday, October 15, 2006



The Ojai Film Festival, like the new millennium, was launched in 2000 with great vision and promise. Conceived as an independent film festival set in the enchanting town of Ojai - only 70 miles from Hollywood - the Festival has since grown into a world-class showcase nestled in the pristine mountains of Southern California.		photographer: Michael McFadden
Each year, far from big city bustle, this delightful small town offers a unique experience:
	• Four days of non-stop screenings at convenient venues • The best of world-wide new independent films • Hot filmmaking seminars with top industry icons • Special screenings of film classics • Opportunities to mingle with the filmmakers, directors, production staff • Premieres and pre-release screenings of major motion pictures

Films shown at the Festival are screened and selected by a panel of industry experts. Providing an enthusiastic audience for the creative efforts of both emerging and established filmmakers, the Festival also features memorable ceremonies to honor the industry's luminaries - recipients of Lifetime Achievement Awards.

Oscars & Other Honors
