A documentary in production
The wall was only the beginning.
The film is not simply about the making of a mural. It documents the encounter that made HORA possible: a Moldovan symbol of belonging carried to Aielli, a town that has learned to speak through its walls.
Between the first sketch and the unveiling, it follows the artist, the local community and the Moldovan team as they turn a façade into a shared landmark.
Dumitru Culiuc
Director
Dumitru Culiuc is a film director whose work spans documentary film and commercial production. His approach is rooted in authenticity: he looks for the real character of people, places and situations, allowing their values to emerge naturally on screen.
For HORA, he brings this attention to the mural's making, the people of Aielli and the Moldovan team behind the project.
