NTFF on Saturday starts with an Outdoor Filmmaking Panel – hear from entertainment industry professionals. Industry Panel at The Leta, 5650 Calle Real from 10 – 11am. This is free and open to the public.

The NTFF checkered flag drops at 11:30 am when the films begin rolling at the Fairview Theatre with the first of five short blocks scheduled throughout the day and five features to span the globe and all its elements and animals. Humans included! We hope you’ve gotten your Full Festival Pass ($200) to take in all there is to offer in Goleta and Los Olivos. Single tickets are $12, Four and Six Packs of tickets are on sale as well.

The Sizzle Reel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErrXDNyDxf4 will give you a glimpse at some of the more than 40 films we’ll be screening this weekend – first time at a real movie house. It’ll get your heart pounding.

NTFF began in Los Olivos in 2018 and survived the pandemic to rise back up in Goleta with a terrific selection of shorts, feature length docs and animated films too! This is a festival for all ages. And we have to give a huge shout out to the City of Goleta, the Mayor and Council for embracing this event whole-heartedly. Big thanks to The Land Trust for SB County too for being our Presenting Sponsor this year. NT and The LT have been partnering up since 2011 when NatureTrack was founded by Sue Eisaguirre.
