    My experience with the hexagon film festival has been excellent. They informed me of my nomination and offered me to be present at the awards ceremony. I went and won the soundtrack contest. They gave me the award, trophy, diploma and cash prize. The treatment was great, and the organization covered the costs of accommodation, transfers, dinner and breakfast. Excellent!!
