|  FFC 2015 was "a fantastic festival"
Reviews from the audience B We have had an amazing feedback from this year's attendees. While we strive to keep improving, here is a selection: "Very satisfied does not do justice to what I thought about this festival" "It was a fantastic festival. The selection was top-notch and so good to meet some of the actors, directors and producers" "Fantastic. Perfect. Impressive. Beautiful!" "It improves each year!" "I just found out about it last year. From now on, I will not miss it at all" "Every year it gets better in terms of the qualities of the movies and it also gets more crowded" "I love it being in Greenwich. Great restaurants nearby" "Perhaps this is a reflection of my life, but the festival is something of a highlight of the year. Each year, when I say "it cannot get any better," I discover the following year it has gotten better" "A very good mix of good movies" "I had seen a few French films before and this seemed like a good chance to see many (...). I'm glad I went"
"This has been a high point of my cultural year since its beginning!" "I can't wait to attend next year!". "Je ne peux pas attendre!"
