17 November 2024 - Doina Festival - Double Six! Super Backgammon Tournament - 2nd Edition
The second edition of the "Șase, Șase! Super Backgammon Tournament" organized by the Doina Association brought backgammon enthusiasts together for a day filled with competition and fun. The atmosphere was relaxed yet competitive, with memorable moments created by unpredictable dice rolls and the entertaining commentary of the "chibiți" (spectators).
10 November 2024 - Doina Festival - Romanian movie "Nasty"
We ended the weekend with the screening of the documentary movie *Nasty*, an extraordinarily well-made production that reminded us of the great achievements of Romanian athlete Adrian Năstase, as well as the childhood of many of us. It was a window into a beautiful world filled with camaraderie and sportsmanship. If you haven't seen it yet, we wholeheartedly recommend seeking it out and watching it.
10 November 2024 - Doina Festival - "La Povești" Anniversary
On Sunday morning, the "La Povești" club celebrated 7 years of existence with an amazing superhero party and ninja training! Kids of all ages joined in and had a wonderful day, filled with games, energy, and fun alongside friends.
9 November 2024 - Doina Festival - "Hanul Ancuței"
On Saturday, we continued with the vibrant Romanian party "Hanul Ancuței," where we enjoyed an authentic Romanian atmosphere with traditional music, dancing, and delicious food. It was an exceptionally successful evening, filled with joy and special moments that made us feel right at home.
3 November 2024 - Festival - "My Ceramic Ia"
Last Sunday, the Doina Festival hosted another successful event: "My Ceramic Ia," which was attended by 24 people. We thank our organizers, Iulia Simtion and Adina Giurgiu, for a remarkable event!
20 October 2024 - Festival - Romanian movie "Freedom"
Last week, we had the opportunity to watch the movie "Freedom", a true artistic manifesto that reminds us of the pivotal moments of the Romanian Revolution. The movie takes us back to December 1989, right into the heart of the events that changed the destiny of a nation. It is a film not to be missed.
