- Radu Jude is in production with an untitled independent 90 minute documentary about the photo collection of Costica Acsinte (1897-1984). Producer is EAVE graduate and Romanian National Coordinator Ada Solomon. The film will use approximately 2,000 photos from the collection's total of 7,500 photos. Costica Acsinte enrolled as a war photographer during WWI and developed not only his own photos but also the plates taken by the Romanian, French and Russian aerial observers. After the war he continued documenting the life of ordinary people so that today, apart from the collection of war photos, there are countless photos held by the families of those who have been photographed.
