World Premiere of G.O.A.T. at Brooklyn Film Festival.
After four years of dedication, we’re thrilled to announce that our film G.O.A.T. had its world premiere in the International Competition of the Brooklyn Film Festival in New York City.
Screenplay co-writer Rozemarijn Elisa and director/co-writer Daan Bunnik attended the festival in person. The screening was a great success, followed by a beautiful Q&A with fellow filmmakers from around the world.
What made the experience truly special were the deep and heartfelt conversations we had with the audience after the screening — connecting through the film’s central theme: the taboo surrounding birth trauma, and how G.O.A.T. dares to break the silence around it.
We’re honored to have premiered at such a bold and international platform that celebrates creative freedom and emerging voices in cinema.
