“Thank you. It is truly a great honour to be in such an exceptional company of great directors and actors. This is my third time in Belgrade, you are very hospitable and I’m already beginning to make friends. I want to thank the FEST Directorate for having decided that the Festival be opened by Steven Duldry’s “the Reader”. Of course, I want to thank the Yugoslav Film Archive for honouring me with the Golden Seal. Hvala”, Mr. Fiennes concluded his speech in Serbian.
