  • A truly scary festival! I definitely wrote an email 10 times and wrote on Instagram and they did not answer me. We wanted to attend the festival ourselves and they didn't even send us an invitation. I think this was the scariest festival we've ever attended.
    Stay away from this festival.

    Festival Fescilmar: Un Triunfo Cinematográfico en Venezuela

    Aunque no pude asistir, quedé encantado con la sesión inaugural del Festival Fescilmar en Venezuela. Gracias al director del festival, Genaro, el evento presentó una diversa selección de películas, ofreciendo una cautivadora visión del cine venezolano e internacional. El formato virtual fue accesible y bien ejecutado, brindando una experiencia atractiva desde la comodidad del hogar. El liderazgo visionario de Genaro fue evidente, creando un espacio cultural que promete moldear el futuro del cine en Venezuela. Si hay algún festival de cine en América del Sur al que asistiría en persona, sin duda sería Fescilmar. Espero con interés el continuo éxito del festival.

    Fescilmar Festival: A Cinematic Triumph in Venezuela

    Though unable to attend, I was delighted by the inaugural session of Fescilmar Festival in Venezuela. Thanks to Festival Director Genaro, the event showcased a diverse array of films, offering a captivating glimpse into Venezuelan and international cinema. The virtual format was accessible and well-executed, providing an engaging experience from the comfort of home. Genaro's visionary leadership was evident, creating a cultural space that promises to shape the future of film in Venezuela. If there's any film festival in South America I'd attend in person, it's undoubtedly Fescilmar. Looking forward to the festival's continued success.
