    Told us what to expect and when to expect it! We were thrilled to be selected even though we didnt get the win. Great festival to work with and will be on our short list of festivals to submit to in the future!

    I just want to reach out to the staff and Jessica for putting on a wonderful festival. If there were ten stairs for each category I would without question them 10..... I encourage all film makers and screenwriters to enter.
