Summary/Abstract: 1995 is the year of the release of the DOGMA 95 Manifesto and the THE VOW OF CHASTITY. This is represented by ten rules that shook the film world. The method and spirit of DOGMA are achieved when the director subjects himself to these rules. DOGMA made its mark on the Danish cinema and the international film world as well, by focusing the directors to be spontaneous.In July 2001 I have written the CONCESSION Manifesto. The 13 rules of the CONCESSION Manifesto have resulted from obstacles that I have assumed and not from their enforcement. The CONCESIA Manifesto is not an unworthy copy of the THE VOW OF CHASTITY but the result of a Romanian experience in the making of my first long feature film, WATCH IT! (3 PĂZEȘTE), a totally independent project.The PROMISSUM Cultural Manifesto was published in 2013. This Manifesto aims at discovering new links in the Romanian culture chain that can carry on the huge cultural heritage of this nation. Therefore, supporting this manifesto, a project was created – the independent feature film THE LAST INCUBUS (ULTIMUL ZBURĂTOR), a film whose story reflects all the main points of the manifesto.
