    A visit back to Romania

    Such a relief to see a positive view of Romania. A place of opportunity with a a diverse and interesting culture. The insight in to the countryside, the beautiful architecture and the people left a really positive feeling and desire to visit and explore. Rather than the current projection of Romania made by other UK channels that it is the source of criminality ir showed a side to the country that shows it is still back in a time distant past with a simple life possible.

    In Search of the Forgotten Song

    I couldn't place the film in any particular genre. It has got the poetic travelogue feel to it combined with bits of information and beautiful imagery across Romania. It is a short film that presents the way Roxi sees Romania by meeting a few people : her grandma, a guy by the side of the street, a photographer and a hotel owner. She travels in a few important cities like Alba Iulia, Sighisoara, Bucharest. The film is infused with nostalgia and enthusiasm for her home country and full of acapella songs and instrumental music.
