- HEIDI by writer/director/producer Catalin Mitulescu, producer: EAVE 2010 graduate Marcian Lazar is in pre-production. The film will question the situation of young women using men as vehicles for receiving nice things in life. "I will focus on girls who are living at men's expenses very close to prostitution, because I find very appealing this hunger for new experiences and things, from having an expensive car and expensive clothes to a weekend in Dubai, and to consume all these things very rapidly. It's like a hunger which is re-fueling from itself," says Mitulescu. Negotiations with French co-producers are underway. The project has a production grant of 467,860 EUR from the Romanian Film Center. The budget is approximately 1 M EUR. Shooting is planned for spring 2015.

- IN PERFECT HEALTH by EAVE 2010 graduate Anca Damian, co-producer: EAVE 1998 graduate Guillaume de Seille is in development. The film tells the story of a young attorney who starts his own investigation into the strange death of his father. Damian wrote the script with Lia Bugnar, and she cast her son, Anghel Damian, as the leading actor of this coming-of-age story. “The movie is inspired by the way my father died. A lot of the emotions I felt then are in the script, but the characters are fictionalized,” says Anca Damian. The project received a production grant from the Romanian Film Center, and it is also supported by Creative Europe/MEDIA with a development grant. The budget is 765,000 EUR. Shooting is planned to take place for 40 days in Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca in June 2015.
