Bogdan Theodor Olteanu on Romania’s MeToo Movement, Empowering Women in ‘Mia Misses Her Revenge’
about the struggle to stay true to one’s convictions when they clash with real-world events, Romania’s slow embrace of the #MeToo movement, and a generation of Romanian women fighting to be heard.I think I had in mind a couple of stories happening around me, where I saw people with strong convictions, people who were fighting for their convictions, that were getting in trouble.
I think it’s going to change. I think it’s going to change as soon as [the younger] generation gets some leverage, this conversation will start developing. Unfortunately, you need to have some victims that speak up for themselves, in order to be their ally and support them – you cannot do it on their behalf. I know stories about harassment, but they are not my stories. I think a #MeToo movement has to start with the victims. There’s no other way.
I think it’s the first generation that’s had some chance to change things. If you are talking just about this artistic environment, actors come from a school where they are taught that the director is God, and you cannot argue or negotiate with the director. So it’s complicated, because then they are going into a work environment where these kinds of ideas exist.
