    Easily the best festival I have attended. The programme is extremely inspiring (more so than the top tier festivals). They took care of hospitality right from the airport. The parties allow for great networking. Took care of many details in the screenings too.

    Congrarulation again! I am really sorry you couldn't come to festival. I sent trophy 2 weeks ago! I hope you get the trophy soon.

  • One of the best festival experiences I had. I was invited on 2022 and had an amazing time: the hospitality team is very dedicated and cared a lot to make my visit comfortable and pleasant. They also organized parties with food and drinks and many opportunities to network with other filmmakers. Highly recommended!
