Ruxandra Orga-Dumitriu: The story of Romania's youngest writer, member of the 100 Youngsters for Romania's Development campaign, is captured in a captivating movie

Ruxandra Orga-Dumitriu is one of the most promising young talents in Romanian literature. At the age of just 15, she has already achieved considerable recognition, not only in Romania but also abroad. As the youngest published writer in Romania (aged 12), Ruxandra has captivated her readers with imaginative and profound stories. Her success has not stopped there, with her books having been translated and launched in New York, marking a spectacular start in the international literary world. This talented young woman has succeeded in transforming her passions into works that inspire young and old alike, conveying values of courage, friendship and acceptance through her writing.

In order to ensure that Ruxandra's imaginative narrative reaches the widest possible audience, it is to be adapted for the screen."Ruxandra și Piatra Armoniei" will be brought to the screen in a production combining animation and live-action, in a manner similar to that seen in major blockbuster films. The film will transport the audience to a fantastical realm where courage, empathy and determination become transformative forces that empower the characters on their journey. At the core of the narrative, Ruxandra and her friend Alexandru, a boy in a wheelchair, discover a enigmatic map that guides them to a parallel universe. There, they must restore the Stone of Harmony, an artefact that maintains the equilibrium between good and evil.

The cinematic adaptation of Ruxandra's literary work reflects both her literary success and the impact her work has had on her readership. Director Theo Thorn characterises the project as a magical narrative with a powerful and timely message, in which the protagonists overcome complex challenges that enable them to discover inner strength and genuine friendship. Thorn intends for the acting to be authentic, with Ruxandra playing herself, which will imbue the film with a touching realism.

Furthermore, Ruxandra's participation in the "100 Youngsters for Romania's Development" campaign serves to illustrate her maturity and dedication. In collaboration with the Dan Voiculescu Foundation for the Development of Romania, she is making a valuable contribution to the promotion of young and innovative values within the country. This demonstrates that every young person, regardless of age, has the potential to become an agent of change.

"Ruxandra și Piatra Armoniei" will be more than an adventure movie; it will be a story about the overcoming of limitations and the importance of self-belief and the belief in others. In a world where barriers are broken down through courage and empathy, Ruxandra is an example of how one can be a hero both in the pages of a book and in real life.
