Le MUFF, c’est un effort collectif ! Un énorme merci aux distributeur·rice·s, programmateur·rice·s, concepteur·rice·s web, créateur·rice·s d’affiches, lieux d’accueil, équipes de photocopie, responsables des envois courriel, créateur·rice·s de GIFs et à toutes les personnes fidèles au MUFF, et surtout aux cinéastes qui continuent de le faire vivre sans cachet et avec cœur.
MUFF is a collective! We would like to thank the countless hours of wondrous work by distributors, programmers, web designers, poster makers, hosting venues, photocopiers, emailers, GIF-makers, muff devotees, and especially the filmmakers that have supported MUFF with passion.
