Actor Dorian Boguta, best known for "The Death of Mr. Lazarescu" (2005) and "Francesca" (2009) was born in Kishinyov, USSR (now Chisinau, The Republic of Moldova) on April 24, 1971. He graduated from Shota Rustaveli Theatre and Film University in Georgia in 1992 and started his acting career at the National Theatre in Chisinau, where he played numerous noticeable lead roles. In 1999 he moved to Bucharest and started acting in films, gaining recognition with the TV series "Lombarzilor 8" (2006) and later with "Francesca" (2009), which was highly appreciated worldwide and garnered a lot of attention at many prestigious film festivals. In 2009 he made his debut in directing, with the short-film "10", marking the beginning of a series of highly successful short-films, including "From now on" (2012), which gained several awards, as well as The best Romanian short-film. Another important moment in his career was directing the short-film "Kazimir", which became one of the first Romanian horror films. Following his passion for acting and directing, he founded actoriedefilm.ro with fellow actors, Dragos Bucur and Alexandru Papadopol, which encompasses both an acting school and a producing company. Their purpose is to introduce their students to an acting style that is realistic and comes naturally. In 2013, they produced their first feature film with actoriedefilm.ro, "Love Building", which soon became one of the most successful Romanian films in the Romanian box office. He is currently working on a project for 2015, which will mark his first time as a director in a feature film.
