One's perspectives become really stimulated and I get inspired, moved, and feels the essentials in life itself and our times.

Thanks!" - Helene Moltke-Leth, Film: I C, Gedicht: Jeg Ser

I wish I could have joined, as it sounds like a fantastic festival, but I am very glad my short spoken words films could be screened. Highly recommended!" -Philippe Talavera, Films and Poems: Be a Man & Be a Lady
