In 2022, Robert Antonescu created and directed Bucharest Dawn to Dusk, the first short film from an intended series on everyday life in the major cities in Romania. In 2023, he produced and directed Cluj-Napoca Dawn to Dusk as a second episode of the series. Robert has been telling stories since learning his first letters. Educated in Romania, he flew over to the States for a brief year as an exchange student in 2003-2004. Getting back to his home country, he got his degree in Philosophy from the University of Bucharest. Then he worked in marketing and advertising, but never stopped writing. Poetry, stories, novels, and - starting 2015 - screenplays. His debut as a screenwriter is Toaster (2015), which tells the story of a young man that has to cope with coming of age in pretty rough circumstances. In 2020, Robert Antonescu helped writing and co-directed a TV long feature about the Romanian revolution in 1989 - In Search of the Lost Revolution. This was followed by 10 TV shorts (written and directed) on the same topic, one year later. In early 2021, Robert Antonescu wrote and directed a TV long feature about the debut of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has yet to air.
