[Adhyatmika · Rating 4 out of 5]

To be a world famous film director you gotta have a bit of personality (read: ego) and vast amount of friends (read: connections). Jacob, a renowned film festival director proved exactly that in this book. For a young filmmaker it’s a good read on how to start a career (and how to brag), for a mid-career filmmaker however will find that this book is a bit pretentious. It’s a sobering book about career nonetheless.
