About

Intimate realism with a philosophical undertow.

I’m a Romanian filmmaker currently based in Sheffield, UK.

I studied Physics and Philosophy at the University of Sheffield, though cinema has always been the medium through which I felt most able to express myself and explore the intimacy, vulnerability, and emotional textures of everyday life.

I’m drawn to grounded, observational storytelling shaped by atmosphere, restraint, and a sense of poetry within ordinary spaces. My work has been influenced by filmmakers such as Wong Kar Wai, Wim Wenders, Luca Guadagnino, and Martin Scorsese.

I began working in film on Radu Jude’s I Do Not Care If We Go Down in History as Barbarians before continuing across a range of productions, from independent grassroots projects to larger professional sets. In 2022, I helped revive and expand the Sheffield Filmmaking Society following the pandemic.

My latest short film, Embers in the Kitchen, is currently being submitted to international festivals, while new projects are in development.
