    BUCHAREST: The third feature of Nap Toader will chronicle the comic fallout of an ambulance unit discovering a fortune under the bed of a dying old man.

    “What attracted me to the script written by Alin Ludu Dumbravă and Dan Sorin Stăiculescu was the fact that a situation over-used in so many films was treated in a modern way and with humor," Toader told FNE. "I wanted to know what might happen to three people discovering a bag of money, but I adapted this humor and I made it more Balkan.”

    The film is produced by Corina Stavilă, Mihai Bogos and Silviu Stavilă through Clandestino Productions. The budget, 561,000 EUR/ 2.5 m RON, was partially covered by a grand of 161,519 EUR /720,000 RON from the National Centre for Cinema (cncinema.abt.ro), Bogos said. The project is being pitching at Sarajevo IFF by Stavilă.

    The main characters are played by Medeea Marinescu, Alexandru Potocean and Gabriel Spahiu. Silviu Stavilă is DoP and shooting will take place around Bucharest, starting 10 October, lasting at most 24 days. The premiere is set for October 2014, according to Bogos.
