There are several reasons why film festivals are important: 1. Showcase of talent: Film festivals provide a platform for emerging filmmakers to showcase their work and gain recognition. It allows them to present their unique perspectives and creative visions to a wider audience. 2. Exposure and distribution: Film festivals attract industry professionals, including producers, distributors, and critics. This exposure can lead to distribution deals and potential opportunities for filmmakers to have their work screened in cinemas or on various streaming platforms.
