San Jose International Short Film Festival

As the Co-founder, Programmer and Artistic Director of both the San Jose International Short Film Festival and its sister festival in Walnut Creek, Sinohui Hinojosa helps to deliver World Class Short Films to appreciative audiences throughout the SF Bay Area.

Together with Co-founder Bill Hargreaves, these grass-roots festivals begun with just a handful of films, growing to the four day festival that it has become today. Held each October at Santana Row, 2016 marks the 8th year in San Jose & the 4th year in Walnut Creek.
