🎶 Reviews and appreciations:
Critics and movie lovers have praised both the emotional story and the remarkable performances of the actors.

“It's hard to find in modern cinema such a deep respect for the spirit of classic narratives. The style and atmosphere of the film remind us of the great masters of Italian or German cinema. Toma Enache does not compromise in the search for excellence.” (✍🏼Gustavo Coletti, Times of Cinema)

“With meticulously recreated period details and a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack, „ENESCU, Skinned Alive” is a meditation on the resilience of the human spirit, the artist's sacrifices, an essential film for those who appreciate historical drama, classical music, and the ongoing fight for artistic and personal fulfillment.” (✍🏼PRISMA Independent Film Festival, Rome)

“As George Enescu himself said, «The artist reveals to humanity the path to harmony, which is happiness and peace.» Toma Enache's film does just that - through its beauty, depth, and touching tribute to an artist who lived and loved passionately, it reminds us all of the power of art to light the way to harmony in both life and love.” (✍🏼Athens International Art Film Festival)

“In creating this masterful portrait of one of Romania's greatest artists, Enache has not only honored Enescu's legacy but has crafted a work deserving to stand proudly alongside the best contemporary European films. „ENESCU, Skinned Alive” is a film that reminds us why we need art, even as it shows us the terrible price some must pay to create it.” (✍🏼 Adrián Pérez, President of the London International Film Festival - Lonely Wolf)

“Nineteenth-century literature has offered us various examples of „Feminine Romantic Love,” but everyday history tells us the other side of the coin. In the story of the Romanian musician, despite knowing the princess loved him, George Enescu is the emblem of „Masculine Romantic Love” that isn't afraid to show itself in all its sweetness and romance. Toma Enache makes us experience it at every moment of the film, directing a perfect cast of actors in every role.” (✍🏼 Nino Graziano Luca, director of the National Historical Dance Company)

Since „The Man of God” we haven't seen people in an entire theater remain silent at the end, reading the credits in silence for minutes on end, without anyone daring to interrupt with the applause fit for a gala… It was as if we had died with Enescu, this man skinned alive in life, alive among us in death! (✍🏼Floriana Jucan, Q Magazine)

I bow before the entire team. With such people, art films will endure. We need such films because they are the only ones that can teach us to turn pain into art. To turn a wound into poetry, as George Enescu confessed: „a living wound that began to sing.” (✍🏼Andrada Badea - Minute of poetry)

"A film like a light point in the darkness - not just cultural - that invades us." (✍🏼Marina Roman)

🎶 Audience:
We were honored to see the impressive reactions of audiences from the country and abroad, who resonated with Enescu's story.

“A wonderful evening with extraordinary people, with a perfect talent, in front of which... even death would bow…
Congratulations, Toma Enache!
Congratulations to everyone who participated in creating this iconic masterpiece!”

“In a Romania kneeling under inculture and fraud, Toma Enache's film is a breath of fresh air. George Enescu re-enters our consciousness, from where he was banished by the ugliness of the way we choose to live.”

“Without a tendency towards vulgarity or abnormality - a unique film in the current landscape of the new generation of directors.”

“Toma Enache is a courageous and profound director, and his film “Enescu - Skinned Alive” is a clear proof of his talent in tackling complex and sensitive subjects. Through this creation, he manages to bring to the forefront a disturbing story, offering the audience not only an impressive cinematic experience but also a meditation on art, sacrifice, and the human condition.”

“Dostoevsky mentioned in his writings that beauty will save the world. This film is entirely BEAUTIFUL!”

This film is not just a cinematic creation but a bridge over time, a reunion between past and present, a celebration of George Enescu's universal genius.

🙏 Thank you with all our hearts to the extraordinary team, partners, festivals, and everyone who supported us on this journey!

🌟 With gratitude for every moment of this year, we look towards 2025 with hearts full of hope and inspiration. Our journey is just beginning, and Enescu's music continues to resonate! Don't forget that we await you throughout the year at the film!

Happy New Year and a new year full of light, art, and emotion!🥂
We promise to continue bringing to light stories that deserve to be told!✨
 
With appreciation and gratitude,
