Mircea Gandila was born in January 1939 in Bucharest, Romania. After finishing the primary and secondary school at the prestigious high-school "Gheorge Sincai", he continued his studies at the Law School, where he graduated in 1971. He never practiced law. His childhood attraction to cinema was too powerful. Consequently he turned to cinema and theatre, mainly as a writer but also as a director. The most prominent achievement is the work for the historical series of acclaimed director Sergiu Nicolaescu from the '70s, portraying the image of Bucharest and of the Romanian Society in the eve of WWII and its aftermath ("Un comisar acuza", "Revansa", "Ultimul Cartus"). In the '80s he continued to participate in different projects in cooperation with his dear friend director Virgil Calotescu.
