We have received  excellent news from Ioana Țurcan, alumna of the Fulbright Student program.  Ioana, together with young producer  Vlad Cantoreanu, both graduates from the Faculty of Theatre and Film of Babes-Bolyai University Cluj, have been shortlisted in the current tenth edition of the GOPO Awards competition (http://www.premiilegopo.ro/nominalizari/2016).
The documentary titled “The Other Life of Charon”, directed by Ioana, is now competing within the Short Documentary Film category and portrays the life of an isolated Roma family from a small neighborhood in Romania. The GOPO award is a distinction recompensing the most important Romanian film feats. Ioana Țurcan is a graduate student in her second year of a master’s program at Syracuse University, the Department of Transmedia.
