Lucian Țion travelled the whole wide world before deciding to return to his native Romania, which he had left four years after the 1989 revolution. His journeys were not fruitless: he got his BA at Middlebury College in the U.S., his MA at the University of Amsterdam, and finally his PhD at the National University of Singapore. He couldn’t decide whether to follow an artistic or an academic career, and therefore he chose to do both. He is currently assistant professor at the University of Amsterdam and Babeș Bolyai University of Cluj. He usually publishes on Chinese and Romanian cinemas—but also on postsocialist Romanian nationalism—in journals such as Quarterly Review of Film and Video, Comparative Literature Studies, and Senses of Cinema.
