For over a decade, Romanian cinema has been a force on the international film scene. This year’s edition of the BFI London Film Festival, Britain’s grandest cinematic showcase, brings to the fore two recent Romanian productions that blew away critics and film lovers alike: Adina Pintilie’s ‘Touch Me Not’ and Radu Jude’s ‘I Do Not Care If We Go Down In History As Barbarians’.

Literature

Literature

The events pass, the books are here to stay. For RCI London, the promotion of Romanian literature is a perennial priority. Most of our editorial projects are carried out with the support of the Romanian Cultural Institute’s National Book Centre in Bucharest. The goal is to publish the best in Romanian literature and with the best publishing houses.

Music

Music

The Romanian Cultural Institute’s lunchtime series in the very heart of London, at the prestigious St James’s Church Piccadilly, continues with a recital by amazing Alexandru Negriuc, a musician under whose fingers the piano becomes alive, building an invisible bridge to an unearthly realm.  

Theatre & Dance

Theatre & Dance

Our theatre and dance projects aim at fostering contacts between British and Romanian artists, supporting co-productions, setting up artistic residencies and producing original shows.  

Visual arts

Visual arts
