    It was great to participate in this festival and an incredible honor to be awarded with Best Performances for our film Last Dance. I love that you receive a video with audience reactions, I believe that is one of the best things about the festival, it is a nice touch and something you can keep for your records and social media ,etc. Communication was really clear with follow up prior and after the festival. Really really happy to have been part.

    Getting to see some audience reactions recorded for us was really heartwarming and reminds us why we want to create art and entertainment.

    The cast and crew were delighted by the warm reception extended to us and our film, "STIGMA," at the festival. It is a source of immense pride for us to have received the Best Performance. Creating this film was a labor of love, driven solely by the desire to provide Jeff Dimitriou (choreographer) with the recognition he truly deserves for his extraordinary story, told beautifully through the form of dance. With this positive experience, we eagerly anticipate returning with future films.

    I am thrilled that my script was selected and honored with a scene reading. The festival is unique because of the scene readings. I am looking forward to responding to the interview questions they sent. The folks are friendly and upbeat.
