  • “Closer to the Moon”, the Big Winner of the Gopo Awards 2015
    “Closer to the Moon”, the big winner of the Gopo Awards 2015 Tuesday, March 31, 2015 Gopo Awards Gala, organised on Monday 30 March at the National Theatre in Bucharest, was dominated by director Nae Caranfil's film, "Closer to the Moon", which left the ceremony with 9 prizes. The prize for film direction, received by Nae Caranfil personally, was awarded by the chief executive officer of Dacia, Nicolas Maure. Another remarkable film which won no less than 5 prizes was “Quod Erat Demonstrandum (QED)”, directed by Andrei Gruzsniczki. “I am honoured to be here and to see many personalities stepping down on the red carpet from Dacia cars. I said in an interview for Ziarul Financiar that Romania also needs other image vectors in addition to Dacia. Film is a very good ambassador of Romania abroad, particularly in Europe, and I encourage you to make many good films to get as many awards as possible”, said Nicolas Maure. The award winners of the evening included: Florin Piersic jr (best actor in the leading role), Ofelia Popii (best actress in a leading role), Virgil Ogăşanu (best actor in a supporting role), Alina Berzunţeanu (best actress in a supporting role), film director Alexander Nanău (the best documentary film “Toto and his sisters”), Radu Jude (best fiction short film). The organisers also awarded two prizes for the entire career to actresses Coca Bloos and Eugenia Bosânceanu. The event, presented by Paul Ipate and Diana Cavaliotti, was broadcast live on TVR2 and attracted many participants from the cinema, theatre, media, television and the business environment.

  • Doru POP the “Trans National Turn”. New Urban Identities
    The “Trans national Turn”. 9 New Urban Identities and theI. TransformationCreating of thethe Romanian Space Contemporary Cinema Doru POP The “Trans national Turn”. New Urban Identities and the Transformation of the Romanian Contemporary Cinema Abstract The pressure of globalization and the transformations of the international film markets are rapidly changing the recent Romanian cinema. In a period spanning from 2010 to 2014, the paper describes same of the most important transformations, visible early on in productions like Marţi după Crăciun (Tuesday after Christmas) and even more importantly in a film like Poziţia copilului (Child’s Pose). The process, called by the author “the transnational turn” of the Romanian film, is characterized by the fact that urban spaces become more and more neutral and generic and the stories are increasingly de-contextualized. Designed for international markets, these films are changing both the set- ting and the mise-en-scène, creating a non specific space which is more likely to be accepted by cinema goers around the world. The second argument is the present generation Romanian cinema makers are moving even further, they are choosing to abandon the national cinema. As Elisabeth Ezra and Terry Rowden noted in their introduction to the classical reader on “transnational cinema”, another major aspect is that the recent films are increasingly indicating a certain “Hollywoodization” of their storytelling, and, implicitly, of the respective urban contexts of their narratives. This impact goes beyond genrefication, and, as is the case with productions like Love building (2013), which are using both cosmopolitan behaviors and non-specific urban activities, are manifestations of deep transformations in the Romanian cinema.

  • Director Nae Caranfil Will Receive the Excellence Award
    Director Nae Caranfil will receive the Excellence Award Nae Caranfil, one of the most beloved Romanian directors and a dear guest of the Transilvania International Film Festival, will be awarded the Excellence Award at the 20th edition. The director has been part of the Transilvania IFF history since its first edition, and his latest film, 6.9 on the Richter scale, opened the festival in 2016. In his honor, his first feature film E pericoloso sporgersi will be screened in a newly restored 4K copy. Widely known by the Romanian audiences for his comedies, Nae Caranfil (b. 1960) explored different genres, from drama and romance to musical comedy. He made his debut with E pericoloso sporgersi/ Sundays on Leave (1993), a lively comedy about the mundane and moody lives of three characters whose paths cross: a high school girl, an actor and a soldier. It was followed by Asphalt Tango (1996) starring Charlotte Rampling and Dolce far niente (1998), with Giancarlo Giannini, François Cluzet and Marguerita Buy. His movie Filantropica (2002) was a huge box office hit in Romania, and The Rest is Silence (2008) won numerous awards and was Romania’s submission to the Oscars. His next film, inspired by real heist that took place during the communist regime, Closer to the Moon (2013) gathered an impressive cast lead by Vera Farmiga, Mark Strong and Harry Lloyd. For his latest film, the musical comedy 6,9 on the Richter scale, Nae Caranfil also composed the music. Transilvania IFF will celebrate 20 years of existence between July 23 and August 1, 2021, in Cluj-Napoca.

Though historians have often used newsreels to illustrate key aspects of German policy and French collaboration, until recently these films have not received widespread attention as an object of study in their own right [1]. Following the trail blazed by Marc Ferro and Jean-Pierre Bertin-Maghit [2], a new generation of scholars is now rediscovering newsreels and documentaries as long-standing archival restrictions are lifted and fragile nitrate films are catalogued and preserved [3]. Wartime newsreels are complex cultural products encompassing political, social, and economic dimensions.
