Sponsored by The Romanian Agency of Investments and Exterior Trade, the AFM will offer a comprehensive view of the country’s diverse and thriving film industry.
Romania’s cinematic journey is rich, marked by artistic innovation and resilience in the face of financial and political challenges. Artists like Aristide Demetriade and Grigore Brezeanu made significant contributions to the nation’s film scene, while the post-1940s political climate forced a complex balance between fantasy and commentary. Following the 1989 revolution, Romania’s cinematic landscape witnessed a revival, venturing into socio-political themes, artistry, and commercial filmmaking. This period gave rise to internationally acclaimed works, including Four Months, Three Weeks, and Two Days.
Creative Romanian Film Makers is a one-stop-shop for all aspects of filmmaking, from location scouting to production, distribution, and financing. This collaborative effort highlights Romania’s capacity to provide a wide range of resources for the global film industry.
The Romanian Agency of Investments and Exterior Trade plays a crucial role in supporting Romania’s presence at AFM 2023. The agency’s mandate encompasses a wide range of economic and trade activities, including attracting foreign investments, promoting foreign trade, and supporting small– and medium-sized enterprises.
