Spectacular opening for Anim’est 2010

The Bucharest audience completely filled up the Capital’s biggest cinema for the official opening of Anim’est International Film Festival’s fifth edition.

Anim’est director Mihai Mitrică, executive director Vlad Ilicevici and Ileana Cecanu, the festival’s marketing director have thanked all Anim’est supporters and friends, but also the amazing number of viewers arrived at Patria Cinema. The Illusionist, much-anticipated by the fans of the most important Romanian animated film festival, arrived with a surprise: an actual illusionist won over the crowd with just a few tricks the audience enjoyed quite a lot.
