Dear Rolf,
You have my greatest admiration for your UNiCA commitment at all levels. The federation is more than lucky to have found in you not only someone with passion, but also someone who delivers results. I hope you don't burn yourself out in the process, and that there are also colleagues who can relieve you. I will try to make my contribution at the festival.
Best regards and see you soon
Thomas
Dear Rolf,
On behalf of the whole team of the Ticino Film Commission, thank you very much for the thoughtfulness we found in the office and much appreciated. And a big compliment to you and your team for the excellent and great work you did to organise the UNiCA festival at the Palacinema.
Hope to see you soon and best regards.
