    This festival screened our film on June 14th and only communicated it to us on July 25th !
    6 weeks after the screening!
    There was no notification of when or where the film was being screened, no invitation, no response to emails until 6 weeks after the screening.
    Probably the least professional experience of a film festival I have had in my 30 years of filmmaking.
    Definitely not recommended.

    Response from festival:

    Dear Donal,
    You can leave your opinion and it will always be well received, we want to improve. We have already explained to you that we communicate your selection and your status as winner in time and as stipulated on the platform. The date and location of our festival's screening were visible, so we understood that communicating it in that way was enough.

    What we would like is for you not to speak to us from anonymity, we are not hiding from anything. We have already apologized, it is up to you to accept it or not.

    Thanks and a hug
