The starting point for considering the means of creating and designing a film space in Romanian New Wave cinema is the thesis that Romanian film art in the 21st century is an artistic response to the times of communism and that images of the post-socialist architectural space – their multi-faceted functionalization in film mise-en-scéne – are the key method of evoking memories of the past. The article discusses, via the example of movies by Crisitian Mungiu, Corneliu Porumboiu and Cristi Puiu, (1) ways of depicting the “closing” of film characters in the cramped interiors of their apartments and (2) film images of individuals’ alienation in public spaces, both of them allusively referring to the times of the oppressive Nicolae Ceaușescu regime. The most important cinematographic devices used bythe authors of the Romanian New Wave cinema include: seemingly static shots, which, however, are filmed with a camera that is constantly gently moving and observing, and tableau shots. A common feature of all the considered works is the panopticism of the film world: the private and public spaces designed in them easily become a place of constant, panoptical observation. In the summary, theauthor remarks on and briefly discusses the coexistence of the aesthetics of minimalism / realism with the melodramatic elements in the cinematic structure of Romanian New Wave films

Artykuł podejmuje kwestię obrazu rumuńskiej duszy albo rumuńskiego ducha, obecnego w literaturze i filmie tego kraju, na przykładzie tradycyjnej ballady ludowej Miorița oraz twórczości filmowej wybranych przedstawicieli najważniejszego nurtu współczesnego kina rumuńskiego, tzw. Nowej Fali. Kontekstem dla prowadzonych rozważań jest teoria przestrzeni mioritycznej zaproponowana przez Luciana Blagę. Tekst omawia aktualny stan dyskursu na temat kulturowo uwarunkowanego specyficznego sposobu myślenia i działania, a także bada możliwy wpływ oraz znaczenie stylistycznej matrycy, przejawiającej się jakoby w postawach i zachowaniach Rumunów, a obecnej także w ich twórczości artystycznej.

The article deals with the image of the Romanian soul or the Romanian spirit, present in the literature and film of this country, on the example of the traditional folk ballad of Miorița and the film work of selected representatives of the most important current of Romanian cinema, the so-called New Wave. The context for the considerations is the theory of the mioritic space, proposed by Lucian Blaga. The text discusses the current state of discourse on the culturally conditioned specific way of thinking and acting, and examines the possible influence and significance of the stylistic matrix, apparently manifested in the attitudes and behavior of Romanians, and also present in their artistic work.
