Bogdan Carves for His Church (Look Into My World Series)

Klaus Tümmler • Germany • 2022 • 25 min
Bogdan likes to carve in wood, and his creations are not banal objects, but works of traditional Romanian art learned from his grandfather and his father.
In a mountain village in Maramureș, Bogdan, 12, spends his time in his father's workshop, where he has been learning woodcarving since he was 8. The boy loves this craft, which has been passed down through the generations in his family, and dreams of becoming the best carver in Maramures. Bogdan invites us into his world, where family, friends and religion are very important, and carving is not his only passion - he plays the violin as beautifully as he carves, plays on the computer and loves nature. Recommended for children who are handy and passionate about crafts.
