The story

One World Romania in Bucharest

One World Romania is a Bucharest documentary and human rights film festival, now in its nineteenth edition, extending through touring programs, educational events, and a documentary development initiative called KineDok that together reach audiences well beyond the festival's own main screening week in the capital each year.

One World Romania built its reputation on programming documentaries willing to take genuine creative and political risks, a positioning confirmed by director Radu Jude, who called it the most important festival in Romania in his view, specifically for the courage to promote films he described as truly bold, radical, and innovative.
