Romanian Film Festival: Through the Looking Glass. HORA (Heritage Organization of Romanian Americans in Minnesota) is starting a yearly festival that will provide an opportunity for viewers to experience art that speaks to the identity of Romanian and Eastern European communities. Romanian art cinema is very different from classical Hollywood; it is ambiguous, utilizing an open-ended or inter-textual plot.

An evocative documentary, Journeys of Identity is the third film from HORA Minnesota dedicated to preserving Romanian immigration stories. Through heartfelt, multi-generational family dialogues, the film reveals the powerful choices immigrants make — and their lasting impact on future generations. As second-generation immigrants reconnect with their heritage, Journeys of Identity becomes an invitation for viewers to reflect on their own roots and the universal quest for belonging. With rare insights into resilience and shared humanity, this is essential viewing for anyone exploring the immigrant experience or the profound legacy of family knowledge passed through generations. This project was made possible in part by the people of Minnesota through a grant funded by an appropriation to the Minnesota Historical Society from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
