(…) Without a shadow of an exaggeration, he can be called the 'pillar of the WFF' – he treated the Studio like home. What's more – his actions, dutifulness and kindness meant that the WFF was treated by other filmmakers as a wonderful, supportive place. We will miss him very much…” – we read on Facebook.
