What is a film festival and why would a film need to enroll in it?
So, what is a film festival? Well, think of it as the Coachella of the cinematic world, where movies strut their stuff on the red carpet instead of musicians on a stage. These glitzy events are where films from all walks of life, from big blockbusters to indie gems, come to shine, compete, and get eyeballs on their work. But why would a film need to enroll? Being part of a film festival is like having a golden ticket to the chocolate factory, it's a chance for recognition, exposure, and potentially, the springboard for distribution and commercial success. So for filmmakers, it's not just about the popcorn, it's about popping into the spotlight!
