The comedy “Teambuilding”, which reached the first place in the Romanian box office six weeks after its release, can now also be watched on Netflix. The film, released at the end of September 2022, is a satire of corporate life, with amusing episodes of a tree-building where corporatists run amok, finally showing their human side. Shooting took place in Bucharest and in the mountains, between July and September 2021.
“Teambuilding” became the highest-grossing Romanian film of all time: in 13 weeks of running, it had over 980,000 admissions and over €4.6 million in admissions. The investment was around 800,000 euros, as stated by Matei Dima (Bromania), in an interview for Adevărul.
“The investment in “Teambuilding” was almost 800,000 euros, a lot for a Romanian film. The fact that it was so successful cheers us up and reassures us, if it didn’t work… we risked ending up on the street. Moral? Don’t rush take risks unless you really believe in something.” said Matei Dima..
„Success is measured by what you set out to do. We decided on this and it exceeded expectations. Besides the money, it’s the hundreds of thousands of people who went to see the film. It’s about the fact that they laughed, that they felt good. «Teambuilding» is a film with everything: with easy jokes, with situational humor, with dark humor in places, as I think a comedy should be. I think it has it all and that’s why it worked and was successful,” completed the
The cast of the film includes Matei Dima, MicutzuAnca Dinicu, Nicu Banea, Șerban Pavlu, Roxana Condurache, Cristi Pulhac, Monica Odagi and Nuami Dinescu.
“Teambuilding” is produced by Vidra Productions, which also made successful productions such as “Miami Bici”, “5GANG: A Different Christmas” and “Camp”, films that set box office records in the year of release.

“Teambuilding is the funniest script I’ve worked on, with the most comedians since the Revolution. It is an atypical film for Romania, if we consider that at the helm were three directors from different creative backgrounds: me (online), Alex Coteț (advertising) and Micutzu (ride). I think that makes it a complete comedy for all audiences.”he says Matei Dima, director and main actor.
