Je remercie ce festival pour son intérêt pour Nos refuges. Mais je n'ai pas eu d'autres nouvelles de leur part ensuite, sauf une réponse à mon mail qui invitait à une rencontre. Ce n'était pas très clair pour moi de savoir si le film allait être montré à des spectateurs, que ce soit en ligne ou lors d'une projection en salle.

The Berlin Indie Film Festival is a wonderfully organized event that provides a reliable platform for independent filmmakers. We are truly grateful for awarding our feature documentary Tango with the Wolf the title of Best Mobile Feature Film. This recognition means a great deal to us, and we are very proud to receive your award. Our documentary was created to give a voice to people living with addiction and impulse control disorders. We deeply appreciate the opportunity to help bring awareness to this important topic. Thank you for supporting our work and helping it reach a wider audience.

I'm incredibly happy to be part of this film festival — especially with two of my short films selected. From the very first contact, the team has been warm, professional, and genuinely supportive. You can truly feel the passion for cinema and the dedication to emerging filmmakers. What stood out most was the welcoming atmosphere, the thoughtful communication, and the great opportunities to connect with other creatives. Festivals like this don't just screen films — they create community, inspiration, and momentum for storytellers.

Berlin Indie Film Festival was a smooth and professional experience. Communication was clear, the team was responsive, and the overall process on FilmFreeway was straightforward. I appreciated the festival's focus on independent voices and the respectful way filmmakers are treated. Thank you to the programmers and organizers for the work behind the scenes — I'd be happy to submit again.
