Life After Oil In a word ? Excellent ! A wonderful experience...;-)

Intimate and intense in the best possible way: I loved being a guest at LIFE AFTER OIL. The festival made sure that the filmmakers have the space to engage with the audience and with each other. Even though it's a small festival, the programmers and the great social media team tried to help the filmmakers to reach their audience and put the message across. I watched interesting films and got to know great people while enjoying the great hospitaly of Massimiliano and the whole team.
