    BUCHAREST: Adrian Sitaru's independent feature Illegitimate, selected for Berlinale Forum (11-21 February 2016), was picked up by the Paris-based sales agent Versatile Films.

    "In Illegitimate / Ilegitim humor and drama are intertwined in a tragicomedy about love (marital love, fraternal love, carnal love), breaking up, choices pro and con life, but also about physical love between brothers and sisters, which is a tabu subject despite the rich research conducted by specialists", says Adrian Sitaru.

    Sitaru co-wrote the script together with Alina Grigore, who plays one of the main characters alongside Robi Urs, Adrian Titieni and Bogdan Albulescu. The cast also includes non-professional actors from the acting school InLight, founded by Alina Grigore and managed by Robi Urs.

    The fourth feature by Adrian Sitaru was produced by Anamaria Antoci through Domestic Film, in coproduction with Poland's Film Produkcja and France's Damned Films, with the support of Altex and HBO Romania.

    The film will be released in Romanian cinemas by Domestic Film on 18 March 2016.
