Really loved the experience with this festival. Nice team and communication ! And good promotion for my movie VOIGHT-KAMPFF. Thanks !

Because I as a filmmaker am so close to the film, It’s truly helpful to get fresh eyes & feedback on a film to know what and how others are receiving the film… what stood out for them and what could be improved upon…The people who gave feedback were positive and very helpful…

Wowser. It feels so fulfilling to hear people commenting about and analyzing our documentary THE TRENT SAUCER, which won for Best Short Film. This is why we create films – to share with the wider world. Thank you for building this festival!

Congratulations! A great festival and grateful to have been selected as best Director!

Thank you for great communication and help in creating the interview and the video about the audience’s reactions!

Doctor Abdoctor, 5min., Portugal
Directed by Leonel Vieira Coelho
Doctor Abdoctor is a poetic meditation on identity, perception, and the porous boundary between embodiment and thought. The film blurs the line between alien abduction and philosophical awakening. Visually arresting and philosophically charged, Doctor Abdoctor explores the strange beauty of being—when memory flickers, and consciousness drifts between the imagined and the unknown.
