Matthew Toffolo: What is your Film Festival succeeding at doing for filmmakers?
Daniel Wesseik: Pannen op het Dak is a festival for culture and culinary and attract various audiences. Thus, the filmmakers’ work is shared with audience that don’t often get exposed to independent animation filmmaking. I think that this is special.
2) What would you expect to experience if you attend the festival this year (2018)?
Pannen op het Dak is a rooftop festival, and visitors can expect an ideal experience of good food, beer and animation. Can it get better that that?
The audience will be able to enjoy our two screening programs –

2. An evening main program with films that are made by professionals and that are currently on their festival route, swiping awards.

For the young talent – Must be Belgian or Dutch.
For the professional films – Outstanding artistic voice.
4) Do you think that some films really don’t get a fair shake from film festivals? And if so, why?
Asian and arabic films. They are so different from European standards, but there is obviously a simmering creative community in many of these countries.

Love for animation and a will to expose more audience to the medium.
