Oleg Condrea, a screenwriter, director, animator and professor at Ion Creangă State Pedagogical University has won Grand Prize at Cannes for the second consecutive year for short films Tangled Tails and Echoes of the Ringing Bells. The artist was congratulated today by MPs and Speaker Igor Grosu.

'Today, in Parliament, I had the joy of meeting Oleg Condrea. Moldova has talented, visionary young people who take the country's name far. Moldova Can!', said Grosu.
