FELLOW FILMMAKERS,
Here we are now with our seventh edition of
5
the “Shooting Romania” brochure. The brochure
was a first step of an ambitious plan designed
by ROMANIAN FILM PROMOTION to spread
information about the growing local film industry.
Romanian Film Promotion also edits an annual
brochure entitled “Romanian Films”, presenting
relevant info about the latest years’ Romanian
feature productions.
As you all know, in the last few years Romania
became a favorite location for many foreign
directors and producers. Beautiful locations,
low-costs budgets or high standard equipment
and personnel were some of the main reasons
that made them consider Romania a good
host for their future projects. Moreover, the
international success of increasingly more local
film productions is another sign that Romanian
film industry is at the beginning of a new way.
Romanian Film Promotion, organizer of the
renowned Transilvania International Film Festival,
became a member of the European Film Promotion
in 2006. Over the last years, Romanian Film
Promotion has been involved in developing a series
of projects to support and promote the local film
industry; since 2006, Romanian Film Promotion
has been organizing annually the first Romanian
Pavilion in the Village International at the Film
Festival in Cannes and in 2008 it has organized the
first Romanian Booth at The Berlinale Film Market.
Moreover, since 2007, Romanian Film
Promotion organizes the Gopo Awards, the
traditional annual film industry awards.
In 2010 Romanian Film Promotion organized
with other 3 renowned festivals in the Balkan
(the Sofia International Film Festival- Bulgaria,
Sarajevo International Film Festival- Bosnia
and Herzegovina and the Istanbul International
Film Festival- Turkey), Operation Kino. The
project consists of travelling film caravans in
the most deprived regions of the 4 participating
territories and aims to offer new perspectives
for development of young audiences and talent,
introduce online film accessibility and widen its
reach to a larger number of territories.
Another major event organized by RFP in 2010
to promote Romanian Cinematography and
bring her closer to the audience is the White
Night of Romanian Film. The event took place
during a single night on September the 17th,
simultaneously, in 9 locations from Bucharest.
For any questions you might have about the
shooting opportunities, local film industry and
Romanian films please do not hesitate to contact us.

dear friends,
All along the years, this noble and generous
home of cinematography – Cannes Film Festival –
endeavored to create and strengthen connections
between the cinematographies of our century.
Cannes Film Festival always outlined the most
exciting, surprising and promising authors. It is
also the place where many Romanian films were
honored with important prizes:
Short History by Ion Popescu Gopo
▪ Palme d’Or 1957
The Forrest of the Hanged by Liviu Ciulei
▪ Best Direction 1965
Blazing Winter by Mircea Mureşan
▪ Opera Prima prize 1966

▪ Great Prize of the Rencontres Internationales

▪ FIPRESCI Prize and Un Certain Regard Jury

The second half of this list entitles us to assert
that the Romanian cinema is, nowadays, one of
our best cultural ambassadors. And it goes on and
on. This year’s edition invited in the Un Certain
Regard section ”Loverboy” by Cătălin Mitulescu.
We are positive that this year’s edition will be
ruled, as always, by Jean Cocteau’s words about
the festival, “an apolitical no man’s land, a microcosm of what would be the world if people would
have direct contacts and could speak the same
language.”
Good luck everyone!

Testimonials
FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA
BUTCH KAPLAN
director “Youth without Youth”
“I wanted to shoot here [in Romania] because
I wanted to make it the way my younger self
would have made it have I not been ‘sidetracked’ by Hollywood.”
producer “Dark Prince”
“There is a go-for-it attitude in Romania which
is just a phenomenon; the locals accommodate
other cultures effortlessly. I came from Los Angeles and to find this atmosphere in Eastern Europe
is truly amazing.”
Anthony Minghella
director “Cold Mountain”
“It is a truly unspoiled landscape, where is it
possible to go and create a world – particularly a
period world – where you can rotate a camera for
360° and not have any impediment whatsoever to
the world you are creating. There was a very great
willingness to go on an adventure with us and I
would certainly recommend Romania to anybody
contemplating a movie there.”
Mick Davis
director “Modigliani”
“The potential is here [for Bucharest] to be another Prague.”
FRANCO ZEFFIRELLI
director “Callas Forever”
“I have found here the excitement and the positive
attitude that other big European studios have lost.”
GREGG HOFFMAN
producer “Catacombs”
“The key reason we brought our business to
Romania was construction costs. We were able to
build sets on a scale that I couldn’t have imagined
for the budget we had.”
JOEL SOISSON
producer “Dracula Resurrection”
and “Prophecy: Forsaken”
“Visually it’s a country that has a great deal of variety of landscape: city, village and probably – most
importantly, very importantly – history. You can
film all sorts of historical periods, and the ability to
build here is phenomenal. The sets that we have,
the price of those sets I don’t know where else in
the world you could do that. And the technical
skill, and the artistry, is top notch. So those things
you cannot find here – you build. And you build it
much cheaper than you would anywhere else.”
Costa-Gavras
director “Amen”
“…Friendly environment and professional people.”
Michael Grade
executive chairman, Pinewood Shepperton Studios
“Labor costs are much lower, their construction
costs are much lower…”

BRAD KREVOY
producer “Second in Command”
and “The Hard Corps”
“Filming in Romania was an incredibly rewarding experience. The technicians and craftspeople
were all top-notch, and the production value
exceeded my highest expectations.”

Major foreign Productions
Shot in Romania
Central European countries, with their low costs, beautiful locations, and
skilled workforce, have attracted many Hollywood moviemakers over the
past decade. But the film industry appears to be looking even further east to
countries like Romania, where the same benefits can be had for even less.
Known to the Western film industry more
as the birthplace of the vampire Count
Dracula, Romania has rapidly gained a new
reputation as a desirable location for foreign
filmmakers. During the last few years, many
important productions were shot here,

Romanian Law
Romanian Law
The National Cinema Center (CNC), which manages the Cinema Fund under
the coordination of the Ministry of Culture, is the only Romanian institution
which offers reimbursable loans to productions involving Romanian
participation, as well as non-reimbursable loans in certain cases.
Any registered production company (or individual
investor) involved in film productions can apply.
CNC grants direct supports to natural and legal
persons who are authorized and registered in the
Registry of Cinematography.
Broadcasters, distributors and promotion
agencies can also apply for the fund regarding film
distributions, exploitation and exhibition. When
Romanian films or co-productions with Romanian
participation are involved, a non-reimbursable
financial support may be granted for distributing
and exploiting films abroad.
Film production
Direct support is granted by the National Cinema
Center to:
↘ Films production of all kinds: fiction films,
documentary films, animation films;
↘ Film projects development;
Direct support for project production and
development may be requested by authorized natural and legal persons who won a
selection session and fulfill several terms,
amongst which:
↘ they are registered in the Registry of Cinematography.
↘ they have a share capital of at least 5000 EUR
(approx.) if they are legal persons, respectively
a bank guarantee letter, the equivalent of the
sum, issued in favour of the National Cinema
Center if they are the natural persons;
↘ they provide a minimum contribution of 6%
of the film production entire budget, paid in
cash, in services, or in kind;
↘ in the case of cinematographic co-productions, the personal contribution of minimum 6%
accounts for the Romanian party participation;
↘ they have obtained, in keeping with this ordinance, a written agreement from the author/

22
Tuesday, After Christmas (2010, d. Radu Muntean) © Multimedia Est
Romanian Law
The producer can spend at least 20% of a film’s
budget inside the EU member states or the states
having signed the Central European Free Trade
Agreement. Direct support for a film production is
granted exclusively for the projects having won the
selection contest and it is not transferable.
Co-productions
CNC can grant direct support in the case of
international film productions which fulfill the
following terms:
↘ Co-producers are Romanian natural and
legal persons, identified as such and registered
in the Registry of Cinematography;
↘ Romanian co-producers participated and
won a selection session, in keeping with this
ordinance;
↘ Romanian co-producers cannot participate
with less than 10% of the film production budget, for multilateral co-productions and with
less than 20% of the film production budget for
bilateral co-productions, in keeping with the
provisions foreseen in the regulations.
↘ co-producers, based on a co-production
contract, have the joint property right over the
film negative, corresponding to each ones’ contribution, and they have the exploitation right of
the film within Romania;
↘ Co-producers take responsibility to mention,
on the film support lines and in all advertising materials that the film was made with the
financial support of the National Cinema Center.
Direct support for international co-produc-
23
tions cannot go over 50% of the Romanian party
contribution to the film creation, with the exception of difficult or low-budget films.
Taxes and incentives
Companies directly involved in the cinematographic films production, distribution and exhibition, registered as such in the Register of Cinematography, benefit by exemption from payment of
custom duties for imports of cinematographic
equipment, film, processing substances and other
goods used in the cinematographic industry, not
produced in Romania.
Even though a tax incentive system is not yet in
place, production costs in Romania offer an attractive alternative. For example, major productions
have included Miramax’s $80m COLD MOUNTAIN,
which apparently saved itself $20m in production
costs, as a result of being shot in Romania.

FUNDING
The Romanin Film Center (CNC) organizes
funding sessions for film projects by granting producers with reimbursable credits in 7 years from
the National Fund for Cinema. You can find further
information on www.cncinema.ro. Romania is
part of the European film structure, like Eurimages, Europa Cinemas, Media Desk or SEE Cinema
Network. Romania has ratified the European Convention on cinematographic co-productions, with
the aims to promote the development of European
multilateral cinematographic co-production, to
safeguard creation and freedom of expression
and defend the cultural diversity of the various
European countries.

Moreover, at the beginning of 2011, EU Commission authorised a state aid for Romanian cinema.
In accordance with the European Union’s rules on
state aid, the European Commission (EC) has authorised a €80.68m (347m RON) funding scheme
for the Romanian film sector, to support development of the film industry, culture and education.
The Commission has greenlighted a Romanian
funding scheme allocating interest-free loans
or non-reimbursable grants for the production
of Romanian films or films made with Romanian backing. In particular, the Commission
judged that the cultural criteria defined by the
Romanian authorities would direct the funding
towards cultural products. Moreover, the measure allows producers to spend up to 20% of the
film’s budget within the European Economic
Area (EEA), not just in Romania. The Romanian
authorities plan to apply this scheme until December 31, 2014.

ROMANIAN CINEMA
AFTER 1989, local film production diminished
abruptly, though some Romanian films were being
honoured in important film festivals: TERMINUS
PARADIS by Lucian Pintilie, Special Jury Award in
Venice, 1998; CIGARETTES AND COFFEE by Cristi
Puiu, Golden Bear for Best Short Film in Berlin,
2004; TRAFFIC by Cătălin Mitulescu, Golden
Palm for Best Short film in Cannes, 2004; THE
DEATH OF MR. LAZARESCU by Cristi Puiu, Un
Certain Regard Prize in Cannes, 2005; 12:08 EAST
OF BUCHAREST by Corneliu Porumboiu, Camera
d’Or 2006; CALIFORNIA DREAMIN’ (ENDLESS) by
Cristian Nemescu, Un Certain Regard in 2007; 4
MONTHS, 3 WEEKS AND 2 DAYS by Cristian Mungiu, Palme d’Or in 2007; MEGATRON by Marian
Crişan, Palme d’Or, short film, 2008; IF I WANT TO
WHISTLE, I WHISTLE, by Florin Șerban, Silver Bear
in Berlin, 2010. During this period, the Romanian
film industry could not compete at the same
level as those in Poland, the Czech Republic and
Hungary, but during recent years, it has realized a
spectacular rebirth.
27
BETWEEN 2003 AND 2011, the National Film
Centre (CNC) supported more than 100 featurelength films, many of them made by first time
directors, and several short films. In 2008, Marian
Crișan’s short, MEGATRON won the Palme d’Or
in Cannes, while Bogdan Mustață’s, A GOOD DAY
FOR A SWIM took home the Golden Bear in Berlin.
Moreover, BOOGIE, Radu Muntean’s third feature,
was selected in the Directors’ Fortnight section
of Cannes and, in February 2009, RomanianBritish- Hungarian coproduction KATALIN VARGA,
the debut film by Peter Strickland, won a Silver
Bear at the Berlinale. 4 MONTHS, 3 WEEKS AND
2 DAYS by Cristian Mungiu won the Palme d’Or in
the official competition of the 2007 Cannes Film
Festival; CALIFORNIA DREAMING (ENDLESS), by
late Cristian Nemescu, won the Un Certain Regard
prize the same year. Going back in time, in 2006,
12:08 EAST OF BUCHAREST by Corneliu Porumboiu
won the Camera d’Or (also in Cannes), while LOVE
SICK, Tudor Giurgiu’s debut film, was selected in
2006 in the Panorama section at the Berlin Film
Festival. In 2011, Romania was represented in the
Un Certain Regard section at Cannes by LOVERBOY, Cătălin Mitulescu’s second feature film.
