MovieMaker announced that Evolution Mallorca International Film Festival has been named to its annual list of 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee, celebrating festivals that serve moviemakers and audiences in some of the best destinations in the world.
MovieMaker, a film magazine and website based in Los Angeles, compiles its annual list based on surveys, filmmaker testimonials, and visits to festivals, among other factors. Key considerations include how much assistance a festival provides to traveling filmmakers; recent premieres at the festival; opportunities to meet distributors, fans, fellow filmmakers and press; and whether festivals are Academy-qualifying.
“Evolution Mallorca keeps earning a place on our lists — from the 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee to the Coolest Film Festivals to 20 Essential International Film Festivals — because it does such a masterful job of combining tasteful, inspired curation with a welcoming, inviting spirit of exploration that puts everyone on an equal footing in one of the most beautiful places on earth. Sandra Lipski does a magnificent job of personifying and championing the festival’s message of Bridging Cultures – Bridging People at a time when we urgently need to find commonalities. What better place to do that than in a Mediterranean paradise?”, said MovieMaker editor Tim Molloy.
“With the film world in a state of constant change in recent years, festivals are more important than ever to help audiences and distributors find new films, and to remind all of us why we devote so much of our lives to making and loving movies,” said MovieMaker editor Tim Molloy. “The festivals on this list work incredibly hard to make it feel effortless.”
