    Having a film screen at the Amor Film Festival is a wonderful experience. My short documentary, Nine Lives, was selected to be screened with 5 other films, which felt quite special! The communication leading up to the festival was A+ and the directors did a fantastic job promoting each of the films on social media and even provided materials so that the filmmakers could promote as well. The festival is a sweet and thoughtful one-night event. After each film screened the filmmakers had an opportunity to answer questions and speak about their film. It was a lovely evening and a real celebration of film and filmmaking.

    Quality experience from beginning to end. A really dope environment where filmmakers were able to celebrate with each other and not just their crews. It was a fantastic time, would recommend 10/10.

    Samuel and Hazel run a wonderful festival. Their passion for film shown through in every detail of the festival. The communication leading up to the festival was superb. The venue was perfect for this very intimate festival. They really made an effort to have the filmmakers feel special. Mission accomplished! Our short film, Statistical Probabilities, was well received. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
