ANIMATORS Q&A’s

Mornings are reserved for talks with filmmakers in the pleasant shade of trees in Šibenik city park, Đardin. That is when our audiences get to meet the festival guests — authors and producers of films in competition, but also the film competition jury. These Artist Q&A’s, moderated by Olga Bobrowska and Michal Bobrowski, have long been a beloved item on the Supertoon festival side dish menu.
