After the last couple of years hampered by Covid interruptions, RAFFA spokesperson Karla Rix-Trott says the film festival team is thrilled with the standard and number of entries.

“In 2020 we cancelled the film festival and last year we ran it virtually, so it’s really pleasing to see there is still enthusiasm for the local filmmaking.”
