This year I watched 11 movies on the Filmfest. Never seen so many but after having not been in cinema for month’ and having a quite rainy summer, The Filmfest met me at a receptive moment. The Goldcard further pushed me to take advantage of this one week a year possibility to watch rather unknown indie movies which will never make it to the big screens. Often enough you pick a pearl which is why I like this filmfestivals so much.
