  • Fantastic film festival, I enjoyed it!

  • I'm not sure why the organizers never contacted me. I sent them an email, but they never responded. My short film is listed as a selected film, yet they haven't reached out to request the original media or the press kit. The whole experience feels like dealing with a ghost festival, especially considering how strange and outdated their website looks.
