Vanina Vignal - Direction, image and sound “Because of my films, people often
think I have Romanian origins, which I haven’t. But, there
have been important random connections with this country. At the
age of fifteen I met a Romanian woman who had fled her totalitarian
country. Among her exiled fellow countrymen, a playwright, and
his saying: “When this play is produced, I want you for
this part.” He did not forget his promise and his play was
staged at the Vasile Alexandrii Theatre of Iasi, in Romanian Moldavia. STELLA is Vanina Vignal’s first film as a director. Her second film On each side (ex 4 women of Bucharest), has received the Louis Lumière/Villa Médicis hors les murs grant, has been selected for the Forum of European Documentary Filmmakers at the Bourges International Script Writers Festival. This film is being developed. These films are part of a trilogy about Romania : after Stella, which deals with the working class, On each side focuses on the lower middle class (which the director is most familiar with) and the third film will be about the ruling class that was ousted in 1948. Vanina Vignal also acheveid in 2007 a film for ARTE, Dimi (with the caracter that inspired the third film of her futur trilogy). It has been broadcasted on Arte France and Germany on the 10th of april 2008 (prod. Les Films d’Ici). Download dimi's pdf
