„Candidate“ by Robert Zuber and Tomislav Pulić and „First time“  by Mirjana Hrga proved on Friday afternoon that television journalists and hosts also make films. Before the films as an introduction, Zuber, Pulić and other festival guests and jury members visited „Iločki podrumi“ for wine tasting and the castle Principovac where all had the opportunity to try golf, most of them for the first time. Nobody wanted to miss this, so all from Areta Ćurković to Anja Šovagović and foreign guests tried it. They were facinated by the history of „Iločki podrumi“, story on the events in Yougoslavia, during the Civil war for independace, and time after the war. Some of filmakers concluded this is an excellent topic for a documentary, while the other thought this to be a great feature story.

All who favour US independant production, could see the premiere film „Captain Fantastic“ with Viggo Mortensen in the main role. Film was screened in Cannes in Un Certain Regard, that won Matt Ross the award for the best director, while in Karlovy Vary it won the audience reward. It is a unusual story – Viggo Mortensen plays single father with six childred with whome he lives in the mountains and home school, and they hunt their food. When they find out that their mother has died, they leave for the funeral, which is their first contact with civilization, fast food, mobile phone, televisions and all the modern wonders. Film clearly criticizes the modern society. And yes, Viggo Mortensen is completely naked in one scene.
