"Just a line to offer congratulations for a great festival and to thank you and all the other committee members for all your hard work. We saw A Separation on Saturday evening – the highlight of my weekend as I was overwhelmed by it, particularly the extraordinary acting. Also I can’t remember a more relaxing Sunday morning – starting with a leisurely swim, followed by brunch, concluding with a new film and all completed by 2 o’clock!" - MH, Frome
"We would just like to congratulate you all on a brilliant weekend. We admire you all for taking on such an ambitious project and pulling it off so triumphantly! What a fascinating choice of movies, which left us with much to think about. And you managed to get the sun to shine as well, which was little short of miraculous!" - J&RW, Kilmersdon
"I imagine that most of you felt this morning that you had walked every step of the way to Santiago de Compostella but I hope that you all managed to enjoy it as much as Reel People members and visitors did. It was a wonderful programme (hard to choose between things sometimes) and a really great atmosphere, both in the showings and the café, etc. There were some films I would never have found without KIFF, so thank you for that – and some others I had heard of but not seen, so was delighted to have the opportunity.
Well done and thanks to everyone." - AS, Kilmersdon
"Congratulations to reel people - what a wonderful festival you have organised - we so enjoyed the films we saw!" - C&JBS, Frome
"A very big THANK YOU to you ALL for such an enjoyable weekend. The food, friendship, films and fun were extra special! You all put in so much hard work - thank you once more!" - J&LM, Frome
"... what a fantastic weekend - and how lucky we were with the weather. Very many thanks to all involved with putting on such an amazing feat - I have a sharp eye and do not miss much and love the happy smiles you all put on - I know what it is like behind the scenes - you make it all look so easy - but it is not - to reach success it has to be perfectly planned and executed and you all did it 100%. I was exhausted running home between films - so have no idea how you all felt!
It is appreciated, I hear about and praise 'Reel People' very much. It has class - and I like that." - J&YK, Kilmersdon
Following thanks to Charles Hazlewood for introducing U Carmen...
"A great pleasure. What a wonderful thing you've got going there!" - CH, Official Supporter of KIFF
