SUMMARY:NY Romanian Film Festival "The Romanians: 30 Years of Cinema Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:„For its 2019 edition\, Making Waves celebrates the 30 years since the Revolution of 1989 with a comprehensive 30-Film Retrospective of Romanian Cinema of the Past 30 Years\, the largest Romanian film program presented in the U.S. to date. The program will run at Film Forum in New York City from November 15-26\, 2019. A selection of the retrospective will tour throughout the U.S. through May 2020.  The line up of the festival is posted here:  https://makingwaves.filmetc.org/schedule/films/. \nBack in 2005\, a three hour-long black comedy about a dying man made history by resurrecting Romanian cinema. The Death of Mr. Lăzărescu was part of the birth of an artistic revolution that ignited an ever-growing international interest in an outstanding generation of filmmakers. It also triggered the rediscovery of past highlights which offered a genealogy for what critics came to call the Romanian New Wave. \nSpanning the 30 years since the 1989 Romanian Revolution and the fall of Communism\, this comprehensive showcase presents 30 representative titles from the recent history of Romanian cinema. Naturally\, history is the running theme in most films. In the 1990s\, directors who found themselves freed from the tyranny of censorship rushed out in the open to tell stories from the recent past. In the following two decades\, younger directors went back in time on their own terms and came up with a fresh perspective on the communist era. Even when they chronicled the present in sharp slices of life\, the dark shadows of the past still permeated their contemporary stories\, like familiar ghosts. And then there is the enigma of the Revolution itself\, which continues to beg for closure. \nNewer films dig into the more distant though equally relevant past\, and there is also escapism\, mostly in genre formats. But despite its apparent diversity\, this vast retrospective works best as a history lesson served in the most entertaining form: movies.” \n\nThe Romanians: 30 Years of Cinema Revolution\nA retrospective initiated by the Making Waves Film Festival & Cinema Projects\nOriginated at Film Forum New York (Nov 2019) and touring throughout the U.S.\nProduced by Corina Șuteu and Oana Radu\nCurated by Mihai Chirilov\, Corina Șuteu\, and David Schwartz (Cinema Projects)\nWith the support of the Trust for Mutual Understanding\, Romanian Filmmakers Union\, Dacin Sara\, the Romanian National Film Center\, Blue Heron Foundation and numerous individual donors\nFilm notes: Mihai Chirilov/David Schwartz

SUMMARY:Seattle Romanian Film Festival - 6th Edition
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating 30 years since the Fall of the Berlin Wall\, the 6th edition of the Seattle Romanian Film Festival\, entitled „One Eye Laughing\, One Eye Crying: Stories OFF the Wall”\, brings you Romanian and Eastern European cinema echoing the political\, economic and existential dilemmas that have reshaped Europe in the aftermath of the Cold War. Bounced OFF a wall that divided families\, generations and nations\, these stories harness the unifying power of film to create new bridges\, in a universal quest for shared meaning. \n\n \nWe have made history together: from one of the smallest venues in town with 93 seats (in 2014)\, we have upgraded the festival to the largest auditoriums @ SIFF CINEMA Uptown with 275 seats (between 2015-2018). From about 750 viewers attending the first edition\, we have been reaching approximately 2\,300 people every year. From an ethnic film festival\, we have succeeded in creating an authentic Seattle experience where people of all backgrounds watch internationally acclaimed films\, learn something about Romanian heritage\, laugh and cry together\, proving that the festival has earned its title „One Eye Laughing\, One Eye Crying”. \nCheck out the full lineup for the 6th Edition of The Romanian Film Festival Seattle (November 15-17 at SIFF Cinema Uptown). More than in any other years\, this year’s edition offers you the BEST of European cinema\, with films that received over 30 national and international prizes! \nhttps://www.arcsproject.org/film-festival.
