Radu Jude to Begin Filming New Feature Love Diptych Next Month

Coming off two 2025 debuts and on the eve of his latest feature, Diary of a Chambermaid, premiering at Cannes, Radu Jude—perhaps striving to make Hong Sang-soo look like a layabout—is rolling cameras on a new film next month. Tentatively titled Love Diptych, it marks “a clearing of [his] obligation towards Romanian realities” and, like Kontinental ’25, exists in the shadow of Roberto Rossellini—in this case the director’s great L’amore, which placed Anna Magnani in two narratively separate, thematically.
