Jean-Jacques Sempé

Français:
À 17 ans, Sempé roule à bicyclette pour un courtier en vins. En 1960, il démarre avec René Goscinny l'aventure du petit Nicolas, dressant une inoubliable galerie de portraits d' "affreux jojos qui tapissent depuis notre imaginaire" (dixit Goscinny). Son humour fin, subtil et allusif allié à un formidable sens du dérisoire caractérisent toute son ouvre. Sa plume traduit sa vision tendrement ironique de nos travers et des travers du monde. Aujourd'hui, Sempé est l'auteur d'une trentaine d'albums. En 1988, il a illustré Catherine Certitude, de Patrick Modiano. Il dessine régulièrement pour L'Express, Télérama, le New Yorker et expose ses dessins et ses aquarelles à Munich, New York, Londres ou Salzburg, où il rencontre toujours un trè

Timothée de Fombelle

As a child...
Timothee de Fombelle was born in the heart of Paris in 1973, but often accompanied his architect father on his travels to Africa. Each summer his family left for the countryside (the west of France), where the five brothers and sisters lived like wild horses, making huts in the trees, playing in the river and losing themselves in the woods. In the evening they performed plays for their parents and devoured the books in the library. Childhood remains for him the lost paradise which he re-discovers through writing.

As an adult...
After becoming a literature teacher, Timothee taught in Paris and Vietnam before choosing the bohemian life of the theatre. Author of a dozen plays, he writes, designs, builds sets and directs the actre

Petr Hanel

Petr Hanel se po sedmi letech práce v Nizozemí rozhodl dát na motivační hesla sociálních sítí a šel si za svými sny. Vzdal se teplého manažerského místečka, aby mohl obrážet filmové placy, vést instagramový profil Klub psáčů a po večerech litovat svých rozhodnutí. Trpí zvrhlým perfekcionismem, kvůli kterému mu všechno trvá nezdravě dlouho, a pro Hvězdy to platí čtyřnásob. Kromě filmaře v plenkách je Petr i samozvaný učitel storytellingu, milovník starší tvorby Christophera Nolana a zapálený urbexer, který na vlastní pěst prozkoumal Černobyl i kosmodrom Bajkonur.
