Born in 1923, Ciulei graduated from the Dramatic Art Conservatoire and then the Architecture School and started his career as a stage designer when he was 23. His career developed into one of the most prestigious in the arts world as he directed and acted in important plays in Romanian and international theater, by writers ranging from Shakespeare to Ibsen and Romanian playwright I.L. Caragiale. The films he directed include "Padurea Spanzuratilor" (The Forest of the Hanged) for which he was awarded a Palme D'Or at Cannes in 1965.
