Very happy my film "Damian" got selected into this first edition of the festival. The organizers where so warm and friendly, and it was cool to showcase my film in an indie/underground venue were I could see cooler independent short films and make connections with international filmmakers. Can't wait to have my next film done to submit again. They facilitated communication and solved my questions. A great place to support independent international filmmaking that can't be seen in conventional/mainstream/commercial movie-theaters. Feel so close now to this festival because it represented my first Mexico big-screen premiere! Thank you for everything, guys!!! Keep it up!
