Excellent festival! I watched some documentaries in competition and they were all inspiring. Many times I have asked for information and I have always received an exhaustive and immediate response. It was a privilege to participate.

Quelle chance d'avoir été en sélection au Festival International de Namur, où se rencontrent la crème de la crème des films nature du monde. Merci à vous !

Le FINN est un festival d'une très grande qualité pour les passionnés de nature. J'ai eu la chance de voir 2 de mes films amateurs primés. Malheureusement je n'ai pas eu le plaisir jusqu'à présent d'aller sur place mais il y a beaucoup d'animations en dehors de la projection des films et beaucoup de visiteurs. Je recommande !
