     In cooperation with the company Double 4 Studios, run by the Romanian-born filmmaker Andrei Zincă, five Romanian films will be presented in Los Angeles:  Fixeur (directed by  Adrian Sitaru),  La drum cu tata / That Trip We Took With Dad (directed by Anca Miruna Lăzărescu), Însărcinată în România / I'm Pregnant in Romania (directed by Jesús del Cerro) and Chuck Norris vs. Comunism (directed by Ilinca Călugăreanu), and the short Flori de plastic / Plastic Flowers (directed by Claudia Ilea). The screenings will be followed by talks with the audience, attended by Adrian Sitaru, Irina Margareta Nistor, Anca Miruna Lăzărescu and Jesús del Cerro.
     A special evening, on the day before the Festival's official opening, will be dedicated to the Romanian community based in Southern California. On 26 April, the documentary Chuck Norris vs. Communism will be screened, with Irina Margareta Nistor attending as special guest.
     The filmmakers will also attend a seminar on film production in Eastern Europe, dedicated to the filmmakers in attendance and to independent film producers in Hollywood.
