Marina-Evelina Cracana is a young Romanian filmmaker who recently completed her Film Degree at Edinburgh Napier University. In 2016, during an exchange program in Canada, she was awarded the Jean Oser Prize in film studies and directed Negative, a short screened in several festivals in Europe and Canada. The same year, she participated in Aristoteles Workshop alongside Piero Di Silverio where they shot the short documentary The Fuel Filter. During her studies, she worked as a First Assistant director for Ecce Homo an award-winning MA film praised for its contemplative aesthetics. Marina’s film work digs into the personal side of human experience searching for the intimate, the private, the inherent and their turbulent symbiosis with the outside world and its socio-political implications.
