Biografia
Teodora Ana Mihai (b. 1981, Bucharest) left her native Romania for Belgium in 1989 to rejoin her parents, who had left the seven-year-old behind a year earlier to emigrate. Some years later she was given the opportunity to study in the United States, and she graduated from a San Francisco high school. She also attended her first film workshops in the Bay Area, gradually developing her relationship to filmmaking. After returning to Belgium she worked at scriptwriting and as an assistant director; for television she cooperated on the program "Man Bijt Hond," among others. Recently, she has concentrated on her own projects. She cowrote the script for the feature Little Lies and she directs documentaries. This year she debuted with the feature-length doc Waiting for August, which draws on her own experiences as a child left alone.
