- Title
Deterritorialized Cinema, Dislocated Spaces and Disembodied Characters in Bogdan Miricã's Câini.

- Abstract
The main assumption of this paper is that the Romanian film industry and the film directors themselves are going through a process of aesthetic and narrative transformation, mostly due to the impact of post-national cinema-making practices. Some of the recent works in Romanian cinema are following the logic of another stylistic, that of a delocalized cinema, a cinema that is both deterritorialized and non-specific nationally. This is explicit in the way the directors are defining the national space, the territorial identity and, finally, the way in which they project social and collective representations. Using as a case study Bogdan Mirică's first feature film, Câini (Dogs, 2016), the author argues that his cinematic practices indicate a conscious abandoning of the national specificity.
