title: Publicitate (D’ale publicității)

overview: A satire of artificiality in advertising, especially surprising due to the moment when it was made, in the mid 1980s. The ironic clichés anticipate the sexualized imagination of the 1990s: young women biting lasciviously from a piece of chocolate that melts on their face, lovers sipping allusively on a champagne, the cork of which pops under pressure. Advertising is, at the same time, a tribute to the efforts of the shooting crew, forced to work in difficult conditions - that are hyperbolized in the film - and to find all sorts of ingenious solutions so that the implausible situations they present look as polished and as desirable as possible.

title: Today I was Young and Pretty

overview: Most of the Gypsy population of Clejani, a village located some 50 km away from Bucharest, traditionally consists of musicians going back for many generations.  The film shows how the musicians relate to daily life and the way their perception of reality influences their music.  Firm belief in superstitions, the unavoidable blows of fate, communication with the dead, become the sources of inspiration and expression, of joy and sorrow.  Alexandra Gulea’s unconventional documentary takes us on a musical journey to the origins of romanian gypsy music.

 Din trei căsătorii are nouă odrasle și trei bone luate de pe Wish, că par proaste ca noaptea.
 Singur cuc în viața amoroasă, se îndrăgostește de Valentina (nici nu-mi vine a crede că este Anamaria Prodan) care îi dă un ultimatum în ceea ce privește rostirea celei mai importante întrebări.
 Dar șatra de puradei nu vede cu ochi buni această căsnicie, așa că neastâmpărații complotează cu bonele pentru a-l despărți pe Virgil de Valentina și a-l face să o ia de nevastă pe una din bone.

title: Letter of Forgiveness

overview: In the household of a wealthy Romanian noblewoman in 1855, Maria, a Roma-Gipsy slave, fights to obtain freedom for her son Dinca. Part of a future full-length project, the short film presents a day in the household in which Maria and her son, Dinca, serve as slaves. As important guests arrive for dinner and all the slaves are making preparations, Maria and her son see this day as a chance to take a step to change their fate. During slavery time, up until 1856, the Romanian equivalent of the word "forgiveness" was used when referring to freeing someone from slavery (the Roma slave was "forgiven" from slavery).

title: Letter of Forgiveness

title: Bilet de iertare

overview: Korte film: In het huishouden van een rijke Roemeense edelvrouw in 1855 vecht Maria, een Roma-zigeunerslaaf, voor de vrijheid van haar zoon Dinca. De korte film maakt deel uit van een toekomstig lang project en presenteert een dag in het huishouden waarin Maria en haar zoon Dinca als slaven dienen. Terwijl belangrijke gasten arriveren voor het diner en alle slaven voorbereidingen treffen, zien Maria en haar zoon deze dag als een kans om een stap te zetten om hun lot te veranderen. Tijdens de slavernij, tot 1856, werd het Roemeense equivalent van het woord 'vergeving' gebruikt als er werd verwezen naar de bevrijding van iemand uit de slavernij (de Roma-slaaf werd 'vergeven' van de slavernij).

title: Where We Used to Sleep

overview: Long ago, Geamăna was a Romanian village in the Apuseni Mountains, home to about 1000 people. Today, only the church spire rises from the poisonous mud of a neighbouring copper mine. Almost all the houses have sunk and their inhabitants fled. Only a few people held on to their home. On the edge of the past, Valeria Praţa strives for her present - and is threatened by the future.

title: Where We Used to Sleep

overview: Η Βαλέρια είναι η μοναδική κάτοικος ενός μικρού χωριού στη Ρουμανία που έχει ερημώσει. Τόνοι λάσπης από το γειτονικό ορυχείο χαλκού έχουν πλημμυρίσει τον τόπο, αφενός ανεβάζοντας ταυτόχρονα τη στάθμη της τοπικής μολυσμένης λίμνης και αφετέρου καταπνίγοντας τα πάντα στο πέρασμά τους.

title: Where We Used to Sleep

title: Where We Used to Sleep

overview: Valeria hat alles, wovon andere träumen: Einen kleinen Hof in den rumänischen Bergen, eine Kuh – Pa’una – im Stall und zur Gesellschaft einen wuscheligen Hund namens Duracell. Dieser aber ist stur wie ein Eselchen und die Kuh hustet sich seit neuestem die Seele aus dem Leib. Und dann ist da noch das Kupferbergwerk, weiter oben im Tal. Um das Abwasser des Bergbaus aufzufangen, wurde ihr ganzes Dorf in den 1970er Jahren geflutet. Seitdem harrt Valeria hier unverdrossen aus. Sie will und wird bleiben. Ihr Sohn, der sie ab und zu mit dem Enkel besucht, hat so seine Zweifel. In großen Bildern, die die grandiose Natur feiern und das Grauen des Raubbaus an der Natur ausmisst, erzählt der Film eine höchst aktuelle Geschichte: Der Pegel der Kloake steigt noch stets.

title: Where We Used to Sleep

overview: Fa temps, Geamăna era un poble romanès a les Muntanyes Apuseni, ara submergit sota el fang verinós d’una mina de coure veïna, amb només el campanar de l’església visible. La majoria dels habitants van fugir, però alguns s’aferren a les seves llars. En el límit del passat, Valeria Praţa lluita pel seu present mentre s’enfronta a un futur incert.

Валерия Праца стоит на грани прошлого, стремясь к своему настоящему, но ей угрожает неумолимое будущее.

title: Where We Used to Sleep

overview: Il y a bien longtemps, Geamăna était un village roumain des monts Apuseni, qui comptait environ mille habitants. Aujourd'hui, seul le clocher de l'église s'élève au-dessus de la boue toxique d'une mine de cuivre voisine. Presque toutes les maisons ont coulé et leurs habitants ont fui. Seuls quelques-uns ont conservé leur maison. Aux confins du passé, Valeria Praţa lutte pour son présent – et est menacée par l'avenir.

title: Buzz House: The Movie

name: BUZZ HOUSE: THE MOVIE — Official Trailer #2

overview: The next season of Buzz House is the most ambitious yet. Selly has prepared many surprises for the participants: secret competitors, an isolated villa in the forest that can only be reached by boat and a costumed employee, set to scare them, to have a thrilling exit. Everything is planned in detail. What's not in the plan, though, is for a real psychopath to show up, kill the "scary" employee, take his costume and terrorize our competitors for real. Do rivalries still matter when you're being run over with an axe? Do friendships still matter when you have to risk your life for them? Who will manage to escape and how?

title: Buzz House: The Movie

title: Buzz House: The Movie

overview: Het volgende seizoen van Buzz House is het meest ambitieuze tot nu toe. Selly heeft veel verrassingen voor de deelnemers voorbereid: geheime concurrenten, een afgelegen villa in het bos die alleen per boot bereikbaar is en een gekostumeerde medewerker, klaar om hen bang te maken, voor een spannende uitgang. Alles is tot in detail gepland. Wat echter niet in het plan staat, is dat er een echte psychopaat komt opdagen, de 'enge' werknemer vermoordt, zijn kostuum afpakt en onze concurrenten echt terroriseert. Is rivaliteit nog steeds belangrijk als je wordt overreden met een bijl? Zijn vriendschappen nog steeds belangrijk als je je leven voor hen moet riskeren? Wie weet te ontsnappen en hoe?

title: Buzz House: The Movie

overview: Další sezóna seriálu Buzz House je zatím nejambicióznější. Selly si pro účastníky připravila mnohá překvapení: tajné soutěžící, izolovanou vilu v lese, do které se lze dostat pouze lodí, a zaměstnance v kostýmu, který je má vyděsit, aby měli napínavý odchod. Vše je do detailu naplánováno. Co však v plánu není, je to, že se objeví skutečný psychopat, zabije „strašidelného“ zaměstnance, vezme si jeho kostým a bude naše soutěžící terorizovat doopravdy. Záleží ještě na rivalitě, když vás někdo přejede sekerou? Mají přátelství ještě význam, když kvůli nim musíte riskovat život? Komu se podaří uniknout a jak?

title: Buzz House: The Movie

overview: Următorul sezon din Buzz House e cel mai ambițios de până acum.

Totul este plănuit în detaliu. Ce nu e în plan însă e ca un psihopat adevărat să apară, să-l omoare pe angajatul „sperietoare”, să îi ia costumul și să îi terorizeze pe bune pe concurenții noștri. Mai contează rivalitățile când ești alergat cu toporul? Mai contează prieteniile când trebuie să-ți riști viața pentru ele? Cine va reuși să scape și cum?

title: 낙원에서 온 여덟 장의 엽서

overview: 〈낙원에서 온 여덟 장의 엽서〉는 포스트 사회주의 시대 루마니아의 광고들로만 구성된 파운드 푸티지 다큐멘터리다. 루마니아의 길고 긴 전환기의 잔해에서 영감을 얻은 이 영화는 사랑과 죽음, 인간의 신체와 그 연약함, 자연과 초자연에 관해, 그리고 사회주의와 자본주의에 관해서 이야기한다. 라두 주데 감독와 철학자 크리스티안 페렌츠-플라츠가 손을 잡고 만든 이 작품은 메타 자본주의 신화를 유머러스하면서도 가차 없이 해체한다.

title: Oito ilustrações do mundo ideal

overview: Aproveitando os escombros da longa história de transição pós-socialista da Romênia, o documentário, composto apenas de imagens de arquivo de propagandas romenas desse período, fala sobre o amor e a morte, o corpo humano e sua fragilidade, o natural e o sobrenatural, e, claro, socialismo e capitalismo. Saltando entre poesias perdidas e uma enciclopédia ultrapassada, entre trash art e a Suma Teológica, o filme une Radu Jude ao filósofo Christian Ferencz-Flatz em uma crítica repleta de sarcasmo da mitologia metacapitalista.

title: Eight Postcards from Utopia

title: Osm pohlednic z utopie

overview: Třicet let od popravy Nicolaea a Eleny Ceaușescuových bylo pro Rumunsko obdobím dynamických kulturních, ekonomických a politických změn. Přechod od státního socialismu ke spotřebitelskému kapitalismu ovlivnil přístup společnosti k jídlu, přírodě, historii, smrti i sexu. V osmi ironicky nazvaných kapitolách a jednom epilogu vidíme, jak se nový životní styl a neoliberální ideologii snažily prodat dobové televizní reklamy. Nekomentované pásmo klipů propagujících pivo, pračku nebo krém na boty je současně přehlídkou bizarních (mužských) fantazií a dodnes nenaplněných snů o světě neomezených možností.

title: Eight Postcards from Utopia

overview: Un documental hilarant i implacable format exclusivament d’anuncis televisius de la Romania postsocialista. Una pel·lícula que parla d’amor i de mort, del cos humà i de la seva fragilitat, del que és natural i sobrenatural, de consumisme i capitalisme.

title: Eight postcards from utopia

overview: Un documental de "metraje encontrado" montado exclusivamente a partir de anuncios publicitarios de la Rumanía postsocialista. Al reunir estos documentos del largo periodo de transición rumano, se consigue hablar y sacar conclusiones acerca de la vida y realidad de todo un país, y del amor y la muerte, del cuerpo y la fragilidad humana, de la naturaleza y lo sobrenatural, de la historia nacional reciente y, por supuesto, del socialismo y el capitalismo.

Pewnego wieczoru, po tym, jak zostaje zaatakowana po spotkaniu z miejscowym, Natalia prosi Ita, przyjaciela z domu, który stał się oszustem, o pomoc. Ita wykorzystuje ich frustrację przeciwko wartościom świata, który uważają za arogancki, dekadencki i historycznie winny ich nędzy jako obywateli drugiej kategorii — niewidzialnych migrantów. Rezultatem jest tragikomiczny ideologiczny napad, ujawniający jedynie całkowity brak komunikacji między Wschodem a Zachodem, między bogatymi a biednymi, między panami a niewolnikami.

overview: The son of Pantalone, the honest Venetian merchant, Lelio Bisognosi, the liar, is a brilliant young man wandering the world. For twenty years he lived with an uncle in Naples, then returned to his native city with his servant Arlecchino. Here, he has the opportunity to meet Dr. Balanzoni's daughters, Rosaura and Beatrice, while, in the absence of their father, they enjoy being serenaded by an unknown admirer on the terrace of the house. The author of the serenade is Florindo, a student and tenant of the doctor, who shyly loves Rosaura, not daring to reveal his feelings. Lelio does not miss the opportunity: he introduces himself to the girls in the guise of a rich marquis and claims that he is the author of the serenade, without revealing which of the two he is in love with. But for the sake of the art of "spiritual inventions", Lelio delights in describing himself in various lies, not without undesirable consequences...

title: The Master Builder Manole

overview: Inspired by Lucian Blaga's eponymous dramatic work written in 1927, the story follows the life of the legendary master Manole and his team of builders who are hired to construct a monastery in a remote and inaccessible area. As the construction progresses, Manole faces various challenges and obstacles, as well as the pressure to create a durable and beautiful building. As the work progresses, Manole finds himself in the midst of a dilemma: in order to reinforce the construction, he is forced to sacrifice something very dear to him. This act of sacrifice is central to the story and raises profound themes such as art, devotion, and the human limits of sacrifice.

title: Meșterul Manole

overview: "Meșterul Manole" este un film românesc care a avut premiera in 29 septembrie 1993, inspirat din opera dramatică omonimă a lui Lucian Blaga, scrisă în 1927.

În timp ce construcția avansează, Manole se confruntă cu diverse provocări și obstacole, dar și cu presiunea de a realiza o clădire durabilă și frumoasă. Pe măsură ce lucrările progresează, Manole se trezește în mijlocul unei dileme: pentru a consolida construcția, el este nevoit să sacrifice ceva foarte drag pentru el. Acest act de sacrificiu este central pentru poveste și aduce în discuție teme profunde precum arta, devotamentul, dar și limitele umane ale sacrificiului.

title: Три километра до края на света

overview:
Филмът се върти около на пръв поглед прост сюжет, но всеки елемент е майсторски вплетен, за да изгради въздействаща история, развиваща се в Румъния, по-точно в едно село край красивата делта на Дунав.
 Зад успокояващите и живописни пейзажи  се крият мрачни човешки истории. Един от героите с ирония отбелязва: „Хубава страна, ама с кофти хора.“
 Филмът изследва отношението в румънската провинция към хомосексуалността, вплитайки и теми като корупция, повърхностност, фанатична религиозност и злоупотреба с властта. Всичко това изгражда автентичен и болезнено реалистичен портрет на румънското общество в 2020-те години – и не само в Румъния, а и в Европа като цяло.

Wir folgen der achtjährigen Bianca, die im Internetzeitalter aufwächst, als ihre Großmutter ihre göttliche, weibliche Hexenkraft an sie weitergibt.  Übersetzt mit DeepL.com (kostenlose Version)

title: Ext. Car. Night

overview: A bloody thriller (sort of Agatha Christie does The Twilight Zone) morphs into its own “making of”, a really talky one - a conversation about film, about fear, about fiction. The type of film where the less you know, the better. The title is almost a malaprop - a better one would’ve been F for Fake, but it was already taken. Howard Hawks said that a great movie needs three good scenes and no bad ones. This movie has only three scenes - so there you go.

title: Ext. Car. Night

title: Ext. Mașină. Noapte

overview: Een bloedige thriller (een soort Agatha Christie doet The Twilight Zone) verandert in zijn eigen ‘making of’, een heel spraakzame thriller: een gesprek over film, over angst, over fictie. Het type film waarbij hoe minder je weet, hoe beter. De titel is bijna een malaprop; een betere zou F van Fake zijn geweest, maar hij was al bezet. Howard Hawks zei dat een geweldige film drie goede scènes nodig heeft en geen slechte. Deze film heeft slechts drie scènes, dus alsjeblieft.

title: The Trial

overview: A film constructed on a text that seems to be a theatrical performance rather than the transcript of a trial. The camera traces facades of communist housing blocks, depressingly unchanged over the years, as the transcript from the trial of Communist dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife, Elena, is read without pause or emotion. The intensity of the film is created by the tension between the dizzying and unceasing movement of the camera and the continuous and expressionless reading of the trial script, recording a very dark episode of modern history. — Anthology Film Archives

The main character is a young television employee making her first attempts at reporting. She interviews ordinary people in an attempt to obtain authentic life stories (some of the footage that director Laurențiu Damian includes in the fictional fabric is real), but the idealistic reporter's work is repeatedly rejected by her boss, which eventually leads her to resort to the conventional solution of using a commentary that explains the footage in wooden language.
