The SSFFW Bijou series is an ongoing screening series that pays respect to the BIJOU theatre. The "Bijou" was a significant Hermosa Landmark that generally displayed Indie Films.

Sunscreen is one of only a few film festivals countrywide that is backed and recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. In the year 2009, Movie Maker magazine nominated Sunscreen as one of the "25 Coolest Film Festivals" throughout the country.
