One of the unique features of IPIFF is it's beach cinema.It is  true,that  this year it was not exactly  on the beach but two steps away from the sea, at Hotel Flora's Terrace.

 If it was the film selection, the closseness to the sea or the unconventional setting, the fact is that the night time projections have attracted  more spectators  than expected. Withougt the constraints of   traditional cinema people  relaxed over a beer or a glass of wine.

The projection of the film "When I want to whistle, I whistle"gathered up a record number of spectators. It all culminated with  Thursday night's projection of  "Auntie" by: Serban Marinescu that kept the public turned on. And when the title screen appeared, the audience demanded for one more screening. The projectionist  agreed to also put  "The Concerto" by Radu Mihaileanu, originally scheduled for the sedcond day. The Publics feedback was in perfect syncrony with the emotions of the characters : laughter and sighs were heard at  each sequence and the end was applauded enthusiastically.
