Otilia Babara

I am a documentary filmmaker from Moldova currently based in Brussels. In 2015, I graduated from DocNomads, a mobile master course in documentary film directing. Since 2008 I directed and produced several short films in different European countries, namely Irene (2015), selected for several international film festivals, and Women on Canvas (2009), which was awarded in Astra Film Festival and Cronograf Film Festival.

I have worked on international film co-productions as an assistant director and script supervisor. I have experience in content production for TV, social campaigns and commercials.

My great passion are invisible people: those who have something valuable to share with the rest of us, but who's voice is rarely heard. Whether by chance or unconscious decision, my protagonists end up always being women.
