After screenings in Florence and Bucharest, film maker Dan Dimancescu talks to Romania-Insider.com about his groundbreaking documentary on the ancient inhabitants of Romania – Decoding Dacia – ahead of its US premiere at Fisher College in Boston on November 15.
Decoding Dacia’s story begins with tragedy; Dan Dimancescu’s 26-year old son Nicholas started the project, but was killed by a fall from a high cliff in the Carpathian Mountains during filming in 2011. His father decided to complete the film as a tribute to Nicholas and also created a scholarship program in his memory.
