Living in Czech capital Prague, the filmmaker said that in the past he even rescheduled his vacations so as to come to Sarajevo during the SFF.

Leila Kurbegovic, editor-in-chief of the culture program at the Sarajevo Canton Television, has been covering the SFF for several years.

"This year I had the unique opportunity to watch all movies without going to the movie theaters. Also, I had an easier access to all supporting press materials. That is something I would definitely like the SFF organizers to keep," she said.

"However, I find it much better to do interviews face-to-face," Kurbegovic said, explaining that online interviews are somewhat "cold" as she sees it.

Amra Mehic, a film director from Sarajevo, also missed the SFF held before the pandemic, which provided opportunities for film professionals to "get to know each other personally."

"This year, the SFF arranged a series of short online meetings instead but I doubt those will give any result," Mehic said.

The festival used to be a paradise for photographers, but things changed this year.

"I wasn't in Sarajevo during this year's SFF. I knew it will be online so I didn't expect any opportunity for a photoshoot like in previous years," said Dzenat Drekovic, a photographer.
