The festival has been postponed, or cancelled, hard to tell

Sorry to announce that the Cox Beach International Film Festival is on a hiatus.
All contributions appear to have been in vain. The organizers have cut all communication. Consultants and partners involved in the making of this project are owed apologies (and fees)

Thank you to all partners and filmmakers that expressed their support.
