CONNECTION BETWEEN AUDIENCE AND CREATIVE IS KEY, after all, a film is not realised until it is connected with its audience. This is the last and first vital step in a creative's journey.

As with all Lift-Off screenings, the audience plays a vital role; festival participants will be asked to vote for their favourite projects.
