We had a privilege to participate in the 2017 edition of the festival. It was great to see the film on a big screen. The organisers were helpful, attentive and supportive. Thank you for a memorable night and such a positive and encouraging experience.

Hi there,
Hi there,
 
This email is to confirm that our film "Crackheads" took part in the 2017 edition of this festival. We really enjoyed being part of this event, where we won an award for Best Director.
 
The owners were attentive, supportive and generous. It was a very positive and encouraging experience, and we'd be delighted to participate again.
 
I hope the festival becomes a regular fixture in NZ.
 
Kind Regards
