After Timisoara, the NORDIC FILM FESTIVAL returns with its fourth edition in Bucharest from November 23 to 26. The festival will take place at Cinema Elvire Popesco, 77 Dacia Blvd. Over the four days of the festival, Nordic cinema enthusiasts can enjoy 14 feature films, showcasing the diversity and unique aspects of the Nordic region through the artistic visions of filmmakers from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.
“This year’s selection is perhaps the best so far. We have a rich and diverse program of films awarded at international festivals, covering a multitude of genres. Whether you opt for romance (Girl Picture) or drama (such as A Perfect Normal Family or Backyard Village), for a horror film (Lamb) or a historical one (Amundsen), for a biography (Sonja: The White Swan), a children’s film (Supermarsu 2), or a documentary (Maija Isola), you will enter an unconventional and captivating cinematic space,” stated Vlad Rotaru, the festival’s artistic director.
