Art Film Fest, Slovakia\u2019s premier film event, is on the threshold of its 25th anniversary, only a year away. It will enter this new era with multiple new additions and improvements, including a new home, six varied screening venues, 13 programme sections and more than 150 films!<\/strong><\/p>\n

This year\u2019s most significant change for the popular film festival is its relocation to Ko\u0161ice. The new setting offers ample space for what\u2019s most important: first-rate films. Dozens of competition and non-competition films will be screened at five venues: Kunsthalle and Kulturpark, the former Kino Slovan, Kino \u00dasmev and the city\u2019s open-air cinema.<\/p>\n

Karel Roden, Stephen Daldry to be joined by Laraz Ristovski, Sir Alan Parker<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that this year\u2019s first Actor\u2019s Mission Award recipient will be Czech actor Karel Roden and a Golden Camera will go to British director and screenwriter Stephen Daldry. But now the festival\u2019s traditional awards will also go to Serbian actor Lazar Ristovski (Actor\u2019s Mission Award) and British director Sir Alan Parker (Golden Camera).<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

GOLDEN CAMERA AND ACTOR\u2019S MISSION AWARD LAUREATE PROFILES:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This famous Serbian actor, director, producer and screenwriter was born on 26 October 1953 in Yugoslavia and studied at Belgrade University\u2019s Faculty of Dramatic Arts. Ristovski\u2019s natural acting talent is demonstrated by his body of work to date: he has acted onstage approximately 4000 times and appeared in over 70 films, television series and productions, mostly in lead roles.<\/p>\n

His big international breakthrough came in 1995 with his starring role as Blacky\/Crni in Emir Kusturica\u2019s Underground<\/em>, which won the Palme d\u2019Or at Cannes.<\/p>\n

In 1996 he set up his own production company (Zillion Film) in order to produce his directorial debut The White Suit<\/em> (Belo odelo). This auteur film (written, directed, produced by and starring Ristovski) premiered at Cannes Critics\u2019 Week in 1999, achieving major international recognition. It was also the Yugoslav national entry for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and Ristovski later created a literary adaptation of the screenplay.<\/p>\n

He also played the circus artist Caruso in the drama King of Thieves<\/em> (Kr\u00e1\u013e zlodejov), which was the Slovak national entry for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Ristovski has produced 13 feature films, directed two \u2013 The White Suit<\/em> and The White Lions<\/em> (Beli lavovi), and is the author of three novels.<\/p>\n

In London he was Artistic Director of the Gate Theatre and the Royal Court Theatre. He has also directed at the National Theatre and the Public Theatre in New York, taking many productions from Broadway to the West End and vice versa. His Billy Elliot the Musical<\/em> recently commenced its first UK and Ireland tour, having just completed a hugely successful and highly acclaimed multi-award-winning 12-year run in London. It previously played on Broadway, in Holland, Seoul, Sydney, Melbourne, Chicago and Toronto, and across the US. In 2009, the production won 10 Tony awards, including Best Musical, more than any other British show in Broadway history. Stephen\u2019s first four films (Billy Elliot<\/em>, The Hours<\/em>, The Reader<\/em> and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close<\/em>) together received 19 Academy Award nominations and two wins. His latest film, Trash<\/em>, set in the favellas of Rio de Janeiro, was nominated for Best Film Not in the English Language at the 2015 BAFTAs.

Sir Alan Parker<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of Britain\u2019s most distinguished directors, with a career spanning the Atlantic, Sir Alan Parker was born in London in 1944. After finishing secondary school, he began working in the mailroom at ad agency Collett Dickenson Pearce, where he gradually worked his way up to copywriter. Thanks to his talent, by the end of the 60s he was directing ad spots. He made his film debut by writing Waris Hussein\u2019s film Melody<\/em> (1971). The screenplay to his directorial debut, the musical gangster parody Bugsy Malone<\/em>, earned him a BAFTA Award. Parker\u2019s major breakthrough came with his prison drama Midnight Express, winning him a BAFTA Award and an Oscar nomination for Best Director (Oliver Stone wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay).\u00a0 For the drama Birdy<\/em>, he won the Grand Prize of the Jury from Cannes, and Mississippi Burning<\/em> brought him his second Oscar nomination. In this part of the world he is also well known for Pink Floyd: The Wall<\/em> and The Commitments<\/em>, the latter earning him a BAFTA Award for Best Direction. Another musical film of Parker\u2019s was his adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice\u2019s Evita<\/em>, starring Madonna, created in conjunction with the music videos for the songs \u201cDon\u2019t Cry For Me Argentina\u201d and \u201cYou Must Love Me\u201d. Angela\u2019s Ashes, his social drama on Irish poverty, won the Audience Award at the 2000 Karlovy Vary IFF. His latest film is the American crime drama The Life of David Gale<\/em>, on an opponent of capital punishment who is himself sentenced to death. Parker has also authored children\u2019s books and the memoir A Filmmaker\u2019s Diary. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2002, and in 2013 BAFTA presented him with a lifetime achievement award.<\/p>\n

Karel Roden<\/strong><\/p>\n

Karel Roden is one of today\u2019s most distinguished Czech actors, frequently cast in domestic and foreign productions. He was born in \u010cesk\u00e9 Bud\u011bjovice in 1962 to a family of actors, including his father, grandfather and younger brother Marian. After his studies at the Theatre Faculty at Prague\u2019s Academy of Performing Arts (alongside actresses Ivana Ch\u00fdlkov\u00e1, Vilma Cibulkov\u00e1, Eva Holubov\u00e1 and Veronika \u017dilkov\u00e1), he worked at various theatres (DISK, the Vinohrady Theatre, the Drama Studio in \u00dast\u00ed nad Labem, the National Theatre in Prague, the Theatre on the Balustrade, Labyrint).

At the start of the 1990s he travelled to the UK, where he attended acting courses and refined his English. Roden has appeared in dozens of Czech and foreign films. He made his cinematic debut in 1983 with Ch\u00e2teau Infinity<\/em> (Z\u00e1mek nekone\u010dno), but audiences will more likely remember him as Honza in the romantic comedy How Poets Lose Their Illusions<\/em> (1984). In her 1989 drama Time of the Servants (\u010cas sluh\u016f<\/em>, 1989), Irena Pavl\u00e1skov\u00e1 cast him as the wimpy Milan.

Also of note was his role of the father in the Czech\/German\/French\/Slovenian\/Slovak drama Family Film<\/em> (2015, d. Olmo Omerzu), which brought him the Best Male Actor award at Cottbus.<\/p>\n
