Romanian New Wave From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Romanian New Wave Years 2004 - present active Country Romania Major Cristian Mungiu, Cristi Puiu, Cristian figures Nemescu, Cătălin Mitulescu, Radu Muntean, Corneliu Porumboiu The Romanian New Wave (Romanian: Noul val românesc) is a blanket term applied to a torrent of internationally acclaimed films made in Romania from the mid 2000s, starting with Trafic, which won the Short Film Palme d'Or at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.[1] The greatest achievement of this New Wave thus far was winning the Palme d'Or in 2007 for 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days. Themes

The majority of films of the Romanian New Wave are set in the late 1980s, during the communist regime of Nicolae Ceauşescu, and explore the struggles and resilience of life under dictatorship. However, some films, such as California Dreamin' and The Death of Mr. Lăzărescu, are set later, and are more concerned with the transition to free-market capitalism and democracy and the consequences on Romanian society. Aesthetically, the films of the Romanian New Wave are united by an austere, realist and often minimalist style. Furthermore, black humour tends to feature prominently.[2] Major Films
