National Jury


Cristina Groșan

Cristina Groșan is a Hungarian-Romanian filmmaker and visual artist keen on exploring themes of inner struggle and (mis)communication. Her film Ordinary Failures premiered in 2022 in the Giornate degli Autori sidebar section at the 79th Venice International Film Festival, where she received the Best Director under 40 award. Her debut film Things Worth Weeping For (2021) premiered at the Sarajevo International Film Festival, went on to screen at various festivals worldwide, and was distributed in several regions. In addition to her feature film work, Cristina believes in the short film as an art form in itself. Her most recent short film, Along Came a Prince (2020), is an exploration of consent from two points of view, reversing the usual gender roles.
