    Such a pleasure! I could not attend the Northwood Film Festival and sent a close friend. She received amazing treatment and a welcoming environment. Amazing opportunity and I am so thankful for this festival!

    I apologize for not being able to attend but am very happy to hear of GLOAM RIDER’s reception and am honored to have won an award. I will certainly be submitting another film next year. Thank you!

    Very prompt communication from Northwood Film Festival was much appreciated from Official Selection to information on the screenings. Receiving a note from the festival complimenting me on my film was an unexpected bonus. Receiving a notification that I had won an award following the screening was the icing on the cake. I am very grateful to Northwood for giving my short dance film “Hypnagogia” its public world premiere, and only wish I could have been there! Wishing you all the best for future events.

    Our live screenings gave a platform for spontaneously free flowing discussions about your experimental dance film "Hypnagogia". We were honored to have received your submission and as results showed, it was brilliantly appreciated.

    We had an incredible time at Northwood! The festival organizers and volunteers were remarkably graceful and accommodating. The host restaurant was about as good as it gets - the waitstaff moved quietly around the festival guests and the food was delicious. This was our first 'dinner and a movie' type setting and we were more than impressed with how everything played out. We look forward to returning next year - even if our next film isn't ready to submit by then. Thank you Northwood for your dedication to art in film and for exposing one of Florida's most charming areas! Our film is "The Dark Hammock" -- Feature Film

    Ashley Billington, the wonderful things about having live local screenings at our amazing collaborative venues - (like the romantic Cafe Centro in Northwood) - are the free flow of interactions especially as the movie ended! Then there was the laughter, the gasps, the nervous acquaintance of what comes next made for a very pleasant evening. Thank you for your submission "Dark Hammock" , your insight, guidance and creativity.
