    Being part of the Giddy Island Film Festival was a fantastic experience. Even though I couldn’t attend due to scheduling conflicts, my producer Aaron Golden went and he said. "The Shakespeare sisters put on an incredible first year festival. Their welcoming spirit and fantastic communication mixed with a line-up of wonderful films, all set against he backdrop of the stunningly beautiful island of Paros, made for an experience we’ll never forget. We’re so grateful to have been a part of the inaugural Giddy Island Film Festival!"
