Na svečanoj večeri u hotelu Esplanade, na kojoj su se okupili sudionici 8. ZAGREB TOURFILM FESTIVALA, filmaši i turistički znalci, profesionalci koji se bave tom, jednom od najunosnijih gospodarskih grana i ljubitelji atraktivnih destinacija, uručene su nagrade najboljim filmovima, a Grand Prix festivala osvojio je film Dubrovnik Riviera, koji je ujedno proglašen i najboljim hrvatskim turističkim filmom.
Festival se odvija u organizaciji Turističke zajednice grada Zagreba i Balduči filma, a pokrovitelji su predsjednica Republike Hrvatske Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, Ministarstvo turizma RH te gradonačelnik grada Zagreba Milan Bandić.
Ove godine pristiglo je preko 300 filmova, a bilo ih je iz ukupno 41 zemlje svijeta od Španjolske, Portugala, Saudijske Arabije, Japana, Ekvadora, Brazila, a pobjednike je birao međunarodni žiri od deset članova.
ZAGREB TOURFILM FESTIVAL, čija je direktorica poznata producentica Spomenka Saraga, dio je međunarodnog udruženja filmskih festivala CIFFT sa sjedištem u Beču, koji ukupno broji 17 svjetskih festivala.
Nagradu za životno djelo “Promocija turizma – stil života” koju Zagreb Tourfilm Festival dodjeljuje zaslužnim pojedincima koji su gostima Hrvatske i njihovom ugodnom boravku u njoj, ali i promociji naše zemlje u svijetu, posvetili cijeli život, ove godine zasluženo je dobila Dagmar Meneghello, novinarka, izdavačica, kolekcionarka, galeristica, mecena i vlasnica i voditeljica stoljetnog turističkog posjeda na Palmižani otvorenog 1906. godine, čijem je oplemenjivanju posvetila čitav svoj život. Iz zabitnog otočića daleko od civilizacije, bez vode, struje, telefona, organizirane veze s kopnom, ogromnom strašću kroz 50 godina stvorila je jedan od najljepših hrvatskih brendova kulturnog turizma poznatog u čitavom svijetu.
