From Rossellini to Dracula: Radu Jude in Transylvania

Welcome back! We’ve made it to season four of the Klassiki Podcast. We’re kicking off with a return guest: one of our very favourite filmmakers, Radu Jude. After the success of last year’s gig-economy satire Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World, Radu is back in 2025 with not one but two new films: Kontinental ‘25, an homage to Roberto Rossellini’s classic morality tale Europa ‘51, and what promises to be an unmissable take on the Dracula legend – watch out for that one arriving soon.

Host Sam Goff sat down with Radu to discuss Transylvania, fascism, vampires, and TikTok. Listen to our previous episode with Radu here – and check out a selection of his brilliant shorts on Klassiki now.
