We are excited to announce that Lucian Pintilie’s iconic THE OAK (BALANȚA), now in a new 4K digital restoration, will be released at Film Forum from April 28 – May 4, 2023, with legendary actress Maia Morgenstern in person for select screenings.
Presented as a second installment of the 17th Making Waves: New Romanian Cinema festival, this is the first release of a restored Romanian classic in the U.S. extending our collaboration with the legendary New York City venue in bringing Romanian classics to American audiences.
