Cine Europa, not to be confused with your favourite European film-industry website, is a new Romanian distributor with plans to conquer local audiences and cinemas with a rich and diverse slate of European films: more than ten, mostly French, productions are scheduled for release until the end of 2015.

Cine Europa is represented by Csilla Nagy, who says that the new releases will fill a gap in the Romanian film-distribution landscape. “There are several distributors releasing European films in Romania, but they focus on arthouse and festival films.
