“Chronic”, ANONIMUL screening at ARCUB

     ANONIMUL International Independent Film Festival is setting up a special screening of the film Chronic (directed by Michel Franco) on Friday, 7 July, at 20.00, at ARCUB.

     The screening announces the special guest of ANONIMUL International Independent Film Festival: Mexican director Michel Franco, winner of the Jury Award Un Certain Regard Cannes 2017 for the film April’s Daughter, of the Best Screenplay Award at Cannes 2015 for the film Chronic and of Un Certain Regard Cannes 2012 for the film Después de Lucía / After Lucia. Chronic tells the story of David (Tim Roth), a nurse who works with terminal patients.

His entire filmography, as director and also co-producer, will be presented to the audience in the Delta, and his films' screenings will be followed by Q&A sessions.
     ANONIMUL 14 will unfold between 7 - 13 August 2017, at Sfântu Gheorghe, in the Danube Delta.
