The coming of age for a new generation, BOOGIE continues the recent renaissance in Romanian cinema. Life for Bogdan (Bucur) couldn’t seem more blissful, with a vacation by the sea along with his gorgeous wife and adorable young son. He has grown up and the days of glorious drinking trips and sexual adventures are long gone…until he unexpectedly runs into his best friends from high school and vivid memories come flooding back. Torn between his family obligations and the lure of a fun night out with his old friends, Bogdan – or Boogie as he was known back then – comes to a realisation.
Boogie is the newest product of the so-called Romanian New Wave. Directed by Radu Muntean, the film was selected for the Directors Fortnight at Cannes Film Festival 08. On the opening night screening, we welcome actors Anamaria Marinca (star of 4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days) and Mimi Branescu, and screenwriter Alexandru Baciu to answer your questions.
