Check out Romanian Women in Film, a Zoom discussion between actress Ioana Flora and directors Ioana Mischie (Fragile), Oana Tenter (The Pastor's Women) and Oana Giurgiu (Occasional Spies). The Q&A, which took place Nov. 13 at 12:30pm PT, is available on ARCS YouTube and their Facebook page.

In Fragile, Ioana Mischie’s creative documentary, actress Ioana Flora gives voice to several Romanian women who have suffered abuse and trauma. Written by Flora in collaboration with Rucsandra Pop, the script compiles real stories under a common theme: “Women are not made to be broken.” Flora's inhabitation of each of the women's stories is performed with empathy, respect, and understanding.


Conceived both as a mini-series and as an anthology feature film, this ingeniously created gem won the Fulbright Alumni Grant and was co-financed by eight nonprofit associations in Romania, as well as the US Embassy in Bucharest.
