Montecito dynamic duo Bill and Sandi Nicholson co-hosted a boffo bash at the Sullivan Goss Gallery for a new feature documentary, Helen Believe, which debuted at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.

The film, one hour and 33 minutes in length, focused on Helen Maroulis, who debuted in her first Olympics aged 23 in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, becoming the first American woman to win a gold medal in freestyle wrestling.

Producers, Montecito actor Chris Pratt and Darren Moorman, attended the fun fête, as well as writer-director Dylan Mulick, along with David Salzberg, Christian Tureaud, Jeff and Jill Jani, Allen and Julie Shatzel, Belle Hahn, Gretchen Lieff, Jeremy Lindaman, and Thomas Rollerson.
