Febiofest Influences Human Fates (Portal of Prague)

During the 19 years of its existence, Febiofest has won the hearts of many people and indeed directly influenced their lives. “This year the jury has amongst its members a woman who developed a close relationship with a male jury member a few years ago and now they have a child. There is no doubt that this child will become a great movie fan as well,” said the festival’s director Fero Fenič.
