At the Romanian Cultural Institute in Bucharest will take place the vernissage of a photo exhibition and the screening of the documentary Maramureș – țară veche, țară nouă / Maramureș County – Old and New (directed by Florin Andreescu). The event will take place Thursday, March 16, 2017 at 18.30h.
The screening will be followed by a debate with the filmmakers and with the ethnologists dr. Ana Barca and dr. Doina Isfanoni.
The film is set to present the county of Maramureș today, a world in full swing where simple lifestyle and ancient forms of culture co-exist with the patterns and customs brought in by the young working abroad that want to benefit from the products and facilities of modern society.
The doc was launched in November 2016 on DVD, with English, French, German, Spanish, and Italian subtitles. It is the third one in the line of cultural docs through which the photographer Florin Andreescu takes a radiograph of his country, Romania.

Romania, pas cu pas / Romania, Step by Step launched in 2014 on DVD is a authentic cinematographic chronicle of nowadays Romania and
La pas prin Bucuresti / Bucharest, at step (2015) is a vivid image of the chaotic, agitated and confused capital city.
