Biography

Mihai Mincan studied Philosophy, dreaming of writing „the ultimate“ treatise on anonymity, which never saw the light of day. He was a journalist for 13 years, writing every day about events varying from funerals of unknown people, big court cases and poverty, to interviews with writers, musicians, and theatre or film directors. Since his first script, back in 2008, he wrote and directed short films, documentaries and long features, while still searching for the perfect short sentence. In 2022, his debut feature, "To the North" premiered in the Orizzonti competition of the 79th Venice International Film Festival.
