Making Waves New Romanian Cinema Starts Tonight

This is just a quick not to let you know that MAKING WAVES a festival of new films from Romania starts today at BAM in Brooklyn and at The Jacob Burns Film Center. For the first time in five years I am not doing deep dive coverage of the festival. Its breaking my heart because this is a kick ass festival that proves that the there are some spectacular films from Romania that aren’t the gloom and doom sort that most distributors seem to think we want to see. I will have a few reviews but not nothing like in the past

However the fest is screening some great films, which I have seen and which I heartily recommend. If you click on the links then you’ll see the fill review.
