Romanian born actor and director Andrei Huțuleac is a 2012 graduate of the National University of Theatre and Cinematography in Bucharest. He majored in acting and is best known for his work in the theatre. In 2016 he decided to make his debut as a filmmaker and started working on the script for the short film Offstage. In 2017, Offstage got the Best Live Action award at the Oscar qualifying Warsaw Film Festival in Poland. Now working on his first feature film, Andrei still concentrates on both theatre and film, viewing them less as separate domains and more as different subgenres of the art of storytelling.
