  • ✕  300 random submissions
  • ✕  A premiere that closes A-list doors
  • ✕  Fees and extra costs by surprise
  • ✕  Silence after the first month

✅ Tártaro strategy

  • ✓  70–320 submissions, each one thought through
  • ✓  Premiere strategy aimed at qualifying festivals (Goya/Oscar)
  • ✓  Closed price, fees included
  • ✓  Real-time tracking, always

Quick answers

Before you ask

Are entry fees included?

Yes. You pay once, we cover the festival fees. No extra costs.

Do you take a commission on awards?

No. The prize and its endowment are 100% yours.

I’ve been submitting it myself for months. Worth it?

Yes: a short film’s festival run usually lasts well over a year. Joining now still changes the final result more than at any other point.

Why not just use Festhome myself?

The platform is the channel; strategy is what wins selections: which premiere opens, which festivals qualify, which fit your genre. That’s decided by someone from the circuit.
