Transylvania, with its name coming from Latin ultra silvam (beyond the forest), is one of the most interesting and surprising regions of Romania. Its German, Hungarian and Romanian cultural traditions play a great role in its cultural and ethnic diversity. The Transylvanian plateau is surrounded by mountain peaks and drained by sparkling rivers which makes it both a pleasant place for a relaxing holiday with a landscape pleasing to the eye and an exciting place for adventure-seeking travellers.

Transilvania International Film Festival

31 may 2008

Transilvania International Film Festival (TIFF) is presented by Romanian Film Promotion, and it is the first international feature film festival in Romania. Transilvania IFF's main goal is the promotion of cinematic art by presenting some of the most innovative and spectacular films of the moment that feature both originality and independence of expression, that reflect unusual cinematic language forms or focus on current trends in youth culture.

The Festival is now a well-known brand in the region not only due to the sensational film programs screened every year, but also for the effective layout, sparking atmosphere and density of events, from seminars, workshops and panels to fabulous concerts and crazy all night long parties.
