31st Whitaker St. Louis International Film Festival announces award winners and attendance results
EntSun News/10963678
ST. LOUIS - EntSun -- The 31st Annual Whitaker St. Louis International Film Festival (SLIFF) was held both in person and online from Nov. 3-13, 2022. The fest had a total estimated viewership of 18,923, including 11,627 St. Louis-area students who participated in our free Cinema for Students program. There were 5,745 in-person attendees and 1,551 online viewers. A note on methodology: Because most virtual programs were watched at home by more than a single person, online viewership was estimated by multiplying the number of total programs purchased (886) by 1.75.
SLIFF screened 256 films: 50 documentary features, 55 narrative features, 58 documentary shorts, and 88 narrative shorts. There were an additional 15 film programs exclusive to Cinema for Students. The fest also featured seven special events: three master classes, a tribute to CSL's former executive director, Cliff Froehlich, two filmmaker receptions, and the closing-night awards presentation.
A total of 32 programs were offered for free and 40 virtual programs were offered at a discounted price of $5. In addition, all in-person screenings of the 21 shorts programs were offered for only $5.
