Viva La Vidra Productions
Vidra Productions is a Romania-based film production powerhouse renowned for delivering captivating, box office-shattering films and groundbreaking storytelling. Since February 2020, Vidra has produced and coproduced 12 remarkable films, dominating the Romanian film landscape with an unparalleled creative vision and strategic market insight.
Cinematic Blockbusters
Over the past five years, Vidra Productions has solidified its reputation by producing eight of the top ten highest grossing Romanian films. A key example of this phenomenal success is the 2022 blockbuster Teambuilding, a cultural phenomenon that not only topped the domestic box office but also outperformed international giants, including Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Teambuilding secured the number one spot at the box office, attracting over a million spectators and generating five million dollars in revenue.
Other standout hits from Vidra’s impressive portfolio include: Miami Bici (Parts 1 & 2) – A beloved comedy-adventure series that captivated Romanian audiences with its sharp humor and dynamic storytelling. Tati Part-Time – A heartwarming and hilarious exploration of fatherhood that struck a chord with families nationwide, surpassing 400,000 cinema admissions. Buzzhouse – A film that brought a fresh, innovative twist to modern comedy, with over 500,000 cinema entries. These productions reflect Vidra’s mastery in blending universal themes with local charm, creating films that are both commercially successful and culturally impactful. Additionally, all Vidra films have consistently ranked number one on Netflix Romania for weeks and have later been acquired by leading national broadcasters such as PRO TV and Antena 1.
A Talent-Driven Approach
Vidra’s unparalleled success stems from its commitment to fostering talent and innovation. The company works closely with the most creative and skilled professionals in the film industry, assembling dynamic teams for each project. When it comes to casting, Vidra excels in selecting renowned professional actors, beloved Romanian artists, viral Internet personalities, and rising stars.

In less than five years, Vidra Productions has collaborated with over 200 renowned professional actors, talented content creators, with impressive social media followings, as well as established musical artists (such as Antonia and The Motans).
Our tailored marketing machine propelled creativity and successfully convinced audiences to flock to cinemas. It wasn’t easy—we even went head-to-head with Avatar. And yet, we were right there, with over a million people watching us in cinemas, meaning almost the same as the James Cameron’s piece of art!
International Vision & Strategic Growth
This is what now made us setting our sights on the global stage.
