From Popular Mechanics:
There’s one time of year when it is impossible to get a hotel room in Austin, Texas: South By Southwest, the gargantuan showcase for emerging technology, music, and film. While the festival’s music hogs most of the headlines, its film festival (which runs this year March 13–21) has quickly carved out a place for itself as one of the premiere places in the U.S. to debut a new film. This year’s Sundance Film Festival took a noticeable turn towards the sci-fi, while the lion’s share of SXSW’s science and technology-related movies this year are documentaries. Here are the six films at this year’s festival that are most likely to pique the interest of sci-tech geeks.

I’ve never been to SXSW, but I’d love to go. After reading about these movies, I’m pretty sure I’d avoid everyone of them…but the post is interesting.
