2012

During 28th – 30th of September 2012, at Sinaia, the festival aimed to unwind the spectators once again, with generous rounds of laughter and special guests.

In a world full of conflicts, we have chosen to have fun! This in the motto that we hope will catch your attention so that you follow us for 3 days, at the fourth edition of the Films 4 Fun Festival, which will take place at the International Conference Center Sinaia Casino and at the film studio set on the Carol I Boulevard.

The Cineremember Foundation, together with the City Hall of Sinaia and Hifi Production, invite you to join them for 3 festival days at Sinaia, on the occasion of the XIX-th edition of the “Sinaia Forever” Festival.

Vlad Oprea, the mayor of Sinaia: “Caragiale himself was drawn and inspired by the beauty of our town, where some of the greatest artistic and cultural personalities have lived and worked. Certainly, Sinaia is the perfect place for a festival of comedy films. This year, we’ve started this collaboration, and we intend to further develop this project together, in the future.

As our spectators have already been accustomed, this edition of the Films 4 Fun Festival will bring about shorts and feature films in the comedy and parody genre, and also workshops and lots of fun.

The “Sinaia Forever” Festival offers a space for good vibes and friendly atmosphere to merge with the theme of our festival.

The aim of this event is to offer, during the 3 days, an alternative to the busy, tight and stressful life of spectators, no matter the age.

We shall liven the atmosphere with our special guests:  Daniela Nane, Magda Catone, Silviu Biriș, Mihai Bobonete, Mihai Rait, Bogdan Naumovici and many more, and also through our workshops that we hope will draw you closer to the fascinating world of cinema.
