Gstaad Film Festival has been on tour these past few years and being away from our home, in the mountains of the Berner Oberland, Switzerland, creates all sorts of challenges, ones relating mainly to logistics and funding.
We have always strived to continue with our free entry policy for submission of films from artist/filmmakers but this has become very difficult to maintain on tour and away from our normal sponsorship program. It has also seen us dipping below a level of financing, which thus involves all manner of imaginative processes.
Therefore we are going to solely use the film freeway option of submitting films and charge a small amount (€5.00) for entry of films.
We will revise this once again upon our return to Gstaad, Switzerland.
Many, many thanks for your ongoing support over the years.
Kindest regards
Marc Rome
Director
