The Screening Team At Work

The 11mm screening team is currently working through over 100 submissions from all over the world.
It is a huge pleasure for all of us to be part of this team and the discussions are passionate, exciting and long. You can see part of the team here during our last Zoom meeting. Actually there are a few more of us, but someone is always missing.
