Oaxaca FilmFest
Oaxaca FilmFest was an eight-day long international film festival that was permanently cancelled in 2022 without taking place, once it could no longer hide the fact that it devolved into a calculated scam to prey on unknowing filmmakers. At its start, the festival was held every autumn in the Mexican city of Oaxaca from 2010 - 2019, and again from 2021. The festival is composed of various categories and offered a large space in its selection to emerging directors and screenwriters. History The festival was founded by Ramiz Adeeb Azar, with the first edition of the festival held in November 2010. ''MovieMaker'' magazine listed it as one of "50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" three times.
