When make-up and special effects artist Lydia Geissler doesn’t dream about living under water, she re-considers her almost career choice of criminal investigator. We talked about her love for the movie Carol, the wonderful 1980-ies series Fantaghirò and the joy of a weekend breakfast with lots of time to savor it. It was a blast – enjoy!

It was a joy to talk to actor Enzo Brumm – about the invisible work of acting (hint: lots of reading) or filmmaking in general, his love for a great Steak Frites, the beauty of nature (Norway is a favorite) and why a bit more action and less talking might be the way to go. We had a blast – Enjoy!

Joscha Bongard is wearing many director-hats – from short film to documentary and now his feature film debut, he’s done it all. And in between he relaxes while listening to podcasts on walks, enjoys a good steak tartare with frites, deep late-night talks with friends - and his breakfast YouTube-watch is definitely unique and unusual, but fun. Enjoy!
