The eminent British director and publicist Stephen Lowenstein will present the Croatian version of his new book, My First Movie: Take Two, on the 6th ZFF, in which ten famous directors - Richard Linklater, Richard Kelly, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Takeshi Kitano, Shekhar Kapur, Émir Kusturica, Agnès Jaoui, Lukas Moodysson, Terry Gilliam and Sam Mendes told him about their experience from directing their first films.
