British director Stanley Kubrick is considered to be one of the most extraordinary directors of all time. Some of his colleagues even say that film history is divided into two parts BEFORE Kubrick and AFTER Kubrick.

Irish director Frank Berry was a guest of Zlín film festival 2015 where he introduced his brand new film “ I used to live here”.Since we don´t know much about Irish film and the topic of his film was interesting, we asked him for interview.He was very supportive and pleased with our interest which showed in his answers.

John Carpenter (1948) made many films on the field of horror and sci fi between 1970- 1980 which became cult movies and influenced many other film makers. He not only wrote screenplays, directed and produced films, he also edited them and produced music.His love for films can go back to his childhood when he was hooked by low budget horrors made in mid 50´s.

One of the most interesting guests of Letní filmová škola in Uherské Hradiště was Canadian storyboarder of Dutch origin, living in Prague, young Kurt van der Basch.He was there only for one day since the following one he flew to London for film commitment, but devoted his time fully to the fans. Firstly he led four hours workshop and then introduced the exhibition of his storyboards. Some of them were seen for the first time, thanks to kindness of Star Wars director J.J. Abrams who gave a blessing for their exhibition. Since we never talked to someone of such profession we asked Kurt some questions which he duly replied.

Jiří Strach (1973) is well respected and versatile Czech director who can direct well either: war movie, drama, fairy tale or comedy. Former young film star swapped his position from “in front” of the camera to “behind” the camera but from time to time, he put on “actors´ hat” either in his own movie or in some mates´ ones. We met him again at Zlín film festival 2016 and we talked to him for length. It was pleasant, friendly talk which had two layers- the professional one and human one.
