SXSW 2023: Attendees Gather to Celebrate Tech, Film and Music

South by Southwest and full swing in Austin, Texas, bringing together the latest from technology politics, film and music to the news. Senior reporter Michelle Costello is following the action on site including the latest films that are picking up the most buzz and what you can expect to see at your theaters soon. Hi, from Austin. We're on the ground here at South by Southwest trying to figure out what's new and what you're going to be talking about for the year up ahead. We're here at the Working Families Party Party, which is actually the politics stage. Now, politics has been a growing movement here at South by Southwest. A lot of politicians like to come to Texas like to see the influencers to talk about how their agendas are going forward and really try to get a pulse on the culture. Now, the Working Families Party believes that culture should shift politics and not the other way around. So they're gonna be talking a lot about that with Congressman Greg Cesar later today. Now, another thing that we're hearing a lot of buzz about is the film's because last year, everything everywhere all at once debuted at South by Southwest and also cleaned up at the Oscars this year and there's a lot of buzzy movies and people are trying to get a pulse on what they should buy and what audiences will want. The first thing I've been hearing a lot about his problem is that stars Tilda Swindon and Julio Torres. It's a, about an El Salvadorian toy designer who's running out of his work visa and trying to struggle to stay in the U S. Very topical, very controversial, but it's a comedy and it gets people talking. The other thing I think people are going to be looking at next year is using loud. I sing louder that starts you and mcgregor and his daughter, father, daughter role and they're both recovering drug addicts, a very serious topic, but people are very impressed by both their performances and the other movie that's gonna debut later this week, Joyride kind of a girls trip feel. But with an Asian American cast, Oscar winner in there as well from everything everywhere, all at once. So definitely something to keep an eye on. The other things we're seeing is we're getting more blockbuster premieres here. There's a secret John Wick premier. They had a scavenger hunt throughout the city saying the Baba Yaga which says Nick name in the movie is coming. A lot of people found out about it but the U S premiere actually happened here showing that they know that the taste makers are here in Austin, Texas this week.
