Wrapping #AniFab21, the Animalis Fabula Film Festival for 2021

Animalis Fabula means animal stories in Latin.
​If you have a film involving animals, this is a MUST fest to submit. Tom and his team are wonderful and passionate about what they do. They go out of their way to make filmmakers feel special. My film screened in person in a pandemic year which is challenging. But what a fun and powerful experience I had, being with like-minded compassionate people. I love details like my trailer playing in the theater lobby, festival signage and schedules in the hosting hotel, a dog in costume in the lobby and a guy in a bear suit. I would like to see this fest grow and get the attention it deserves. Again, a must if you have an animal film. And if you like a small film festival that feels like camp, this is it! I made great new friends here.     
Mye Hoang, Director of Feature Documentary Outstanding Achievement Award Winner, Cat Daddies.

"Participating in the Animalis Fabula Film Festival, aka #AniFab was like spending time with good friends.  From the month's lead-up, to the three day event itself, festival director Tom McPhee's infectious enthusiasm in seeking to unite such a large and diverse group of film professionals together as a community was truly inspiring."
