As we get closer to this year’s festival, we want to take a moment to thank all our pre-selectors, who have been a crucial part of this edition.

So much work happens behind the scenes, and we’re incredibly grateful for all the time, dedication, and hard work each of you has put into watching and reviewing this year’s submissions. This festival wouldn’t be possible without you!

To all our pre-selectors, THANK YOU!
