Radu Jude's film called "I do not care if we go down in history as barbarians" won on Saturday evening the Grand Prix - Crystal Globe of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2018, being the first Romanian feature film to be awarded the trophy of the prestigious event of the Czech Republic, according to a release sent to AGERPRES.

The cinematography is signed by Marius Panduru (RSC), the montage by Catalin Cristutiu, the sound by Jean Umanski, the sound mixer by Cristinel Sirli, the sound design by Dana Bunescu, the costume and production design by Iulia Vilsan and Ada Solomon produced the film.
