    „We want to show that in Romania film production can live also outside the system if those who are doing it have a complete passion," the producers said in a press release. They are also acting in it with the 30 graduates of their school. Oana Răsuceanu, Ana Agopian and Iulia Rugină wrote the script. Marius Iacob is the DOP.

    Love Building is produced by Actoriedefilm.ro and co-produced by Dakino Production (www.dakino.ro), Papaya Advertising (papaya.ro) and Digital Cube (digitalcube.ro). The budget is 50,000 EUR. Dragoş Bucur told FNE that most of the budget came from services provided by partners.

    The film is a dramatic comedy set in a camp where couples come to ‘fix' damaged relationships. Bucur, Papadopol and Boguţă will play the three psychotherapists and trainers. Shooting will wrap on 1 August. The premiere is set for 2013.
