    The Reply AI Film Festival was an incredible experience. The films showcased the limitless potential of AI in storytelling, blending creativity with cutting-edge technology. The event was well-organized, with inspiring discussions and a welcoming community of filmmakers.

    Wonderful experience. I was very happy that the film was selected but I wasn't expecting such frictionless and pleasant treatment from a festival on its first edition. Great selection of films as well. Congratulations to Reply for setting up such a great event, and for giving the artists space to mingle. We fully got to experience the biennale. I hope the festival grows and I encourage artists to submit their work.
