Seattle Film Critics Society
- Seattle, Washington
The Seattle Film Critics Society (SFCS) is an organization of film critics based in the greater Seattle area and surrounding areas of Washington state. It is represented by 40 members who work in print, radio, television and online mediums. The society presents an annual awards announcement, honoring the best achievements in film, nominated and selected by all active members of the society.[1][2][3]
In 2023, the category "Achievement in Pacific Northwest Filmmaking" was introduced to specifically honor Pacific Northwest filmmaking. The award is meant to celebrate the many talented filmmakers who call the region home and who produce work there. A nominating committee carefully considered a wide variety of feature films released during 2022 with strong connections to the region and selected five finalists. The winner was determined by a vote of the full membership and announced alongside the SFCS's other awards on January 17, 2023.[4]
