Main star of Febiofest 2018 was a queen of French cinematography Catherine Deneuve. Although she will be 75 this year (born 22.10.1943) she is still active in making films, sometimes three a year. So far she has made over 120 films and worked with such notable directors as Luis Buňuel, Francois Truffaut of Roman Polanski. She had relationship with Roger Vadim and Marcello Mastroianni and her children, son Christian and daughter Chiara are also actors. Sometimes called Greta Garbo of French film was supposed to come for beginning of film festival but due to illness came week later for ending ceremony.

One of the main stars of the FebioFest 2018 was English writer, actor and director Mark Gatiss. He earned his fame as a member of League of the Gentlemen, he is also an author of series about Sherlock Holmes and resurrected Dr.Who series. He is not hiding his sexual orientations so it was our first chance to talk with such artist not only about his screen/stage activities but also about his views.

Slovakian director Marko Škop (1974) introduced his feature film debut “ Eva Nová”. Up until now he was predominantly focused at documents for which he got awards at foreign festivals. He established his own production company “Artileria” in order to be independent. Since we don´t know much either about Slovakian cinematography or about Marko Škop himself, we asked him for interview which he duly obliged.

American film director James Cameron (1954) is an extraordinary man. Despite the fact did didn´t study and art or film school, thanks to his determination, will and creativity, he learnt how to make films and directed two out of three biggest box office hits ever -Titanic and Avatar- each of them earning more them 2 billion dollars. He is a pioneer of 3D technology for which he got admiration not only from his famous mates such as Steve Spielberg but also from notable institutions. He is a holder of many patents in film technology branch. When he wanted to film difficult sequences and technology hasn´t exist yet, he simply invented, constructed and manufactured it. After the big success of Titanic, he managed to say NO to big offers from Hollywood to film blockbusters and walked off the film business for whole decade to devote his time to undersea research. He became a first man who dived onto the bottom of Mariana Trench, which is the deepest place in the ocean on this Earth. He invested his own money into projects which try to save our planet and protect the nature. With his fifth wife Suzi Amis he promotes ecology and veganism.

Famous French director Claude Lelouch was born on 30.10.1937.He had dramatic childhood in occupied France, where he had to hide with his half Jewish parents from Gestapo. He is film self- made man and at the beginning of his career he not only wrote script, but also produced and directed his film and also stood behind camera. He fended off failure of his first films which were panned by critics and the luck shone at him in 1966 when he shot in few weeks with minimum budget a movie A Man and a Woman, which not only brought him many awards world-wide, including Academy Award, but also became one of the most important films in history of world cinematography. Almost every year he came with new film which were well accepted by audience and won awards but failed by the critics. He collaborated three times with Jean- Paul Belmondo and also with Annie Girardot, Jacques Brel or Jean Louis Trintignant. Very often he focuses on showing love between man and woman, about ordinary life and rational and irrational things. Despite being over 80.he didn´t slow own and still makes new films.
