bucharesthousin...
Bucharest Housing Stories is a documentary series about diversity of the housing experience in Bucharest and the neighboring surroundings. The project is composed of seven episodes focused on different dwelling spaces and housing forms - blocks from the Communist period, new residential areas, ghetto neighborhoods, dormitories, public spaces (homeless living), former nationalized houses and homes from suburban areas - and follows the diverse experiences of 21 characters. The project aims to document the cultural diversity of housing and living practices in the Romanian present day urban area. Each episode released on the bucharesthousingstories.ro platform focuses on the diversity of vicinity experiences, on routine and on the relationships developed with the dwelling space by people with different profiles.
The project “Lived-In Homes. Cultural diversity of dwelling in Bucharest and the neighboring surroundings” is developed by VIRA Association and highlights the organization’s main instruments and objectives for a number of areas of interest: social research, documentary film and cultural education. Through this project we aim to contribute to an awareness of the variety of forms and housing experiences in Bucharest and neighboring surroundings as expressions of cultural diversity.
The project is funded through a Grant offered by Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and The Romanian Government, part of the PA17/RO 13 “Promotion of Diversity in Culture and Arts within European Cultural Heritage” Program and is carried out in partnership with The Movement for European Action and Initiative Association and The National Museum of Romanian Peasant.

My name is Jesse and I am French American and i live in cluj. I fell in love with romania and had to come and have been so interested in discovering the essense of it. i have travelled all over the country (was just in bucuresti and now in Mangalia and have a romanian gf. it has always felt like home since i first came. I must say that these documentaries (or short films) are brilliant and genius in my opinion. The way that you capture the stories and mindsets of these people is special. I have always been interested in doing something similar (i am 30 years old) and not just in romania. Anyways thank you so much for inspiring me and i may try something this summer when im out of school (i go to ubb masterat in psihologie, tot in limba romana).
I would be so grateful to get the chance to ask you some questions if you would be open to it some time :) Either way, I love what you do
PS.. I rarely if ever write comments this long
