Cinematic Blockbusters Over the past five years, Vidra Productions has solidified its reputation by producing eight of the top ten highest-grossing Romanian films. A key example of this phenomenal success is the 2022 blockbuster Teambuilding, a cultural phenomenon that not only topped the domestic box office but also outperformed international giants, including Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Teambuilding secured the number one spot at the box office, attracting over a million spectators and generating five million dollars in revenue.

Other standout hits from Vidra’s impressive portfolio include: Miami Bici (Parts 1 & 2) – A beloved comedy-adventure series that captivated Romanian audiences with its sharp humor and dynamic storytelling. Tati Part-Time – A heartwarming and hilarious exploration of fatherhood that struck a chord with families nationwide, surpassing 400,000 cinema admissions. Buzzhouse – A film that brought a fresh, innovative twist to modern comedy, with over 500,000 cinema entries.

These productions reflect Vidra’s mastery in blending universal themes with local charm, creating films that are both commercially successful and culturally impactful. Additionally, all Vidra films have consistently ranked number one on Netflix Romania for weeks and have later been acquired by leading national broadcasters such as PRO TV and Antena 1.

A Talent-Driven Approach Vidra’s unparalleled success stems from its commitment to fostering talent and innovation.
