Abstract
The originality of Emil Loteanu’s talent in the cinematographic sphere is strengthened by the consonance of the conception of Nature in the ideal and confessional hypostases propelled by the grand romantics, with Romanian patterns of nature-centric parentage. The article discusses the phenomenon of crystallization of the personal Myth of the Carpathians reintegrated as a philosophical-aesthetic and genuine-stylistic binder, which interpenetrates all the poetic and cinematic creation of the artist. This myth of the filmmaker’s myths simultaneously contains the cardiography of the turbulent history of the nation, but also of the personal life of the filmmaker-orphaned by his father and by both homelands of his childhood, who took refuge in the catharsis of the splendors of the Carpathians, bringing back in his inspired films the estranged Bucovina into a spiritual, aesthetic, civic whole. In the paper, Emil Loteanu’s creation is related to the sacred monsters of the world film, especially O. Welles, F. Fellini, I. Bergman, A. Tarkovski, who also through their personal myths revealed their unconscious personality to mankind, but also the hierarchies of spiritual values of world images.
