Nicolae Esinencu (13 August 1940 – 25 April 2016) was a Moldovan poet, screenwriter and writer. He was born in Chiţcani, in the Teleneşti district of Moldova, which was then part of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic.[1]
Esinencu attended the Maxim Gorky Literature Institute in Moscow between 1971 and 1975, then his first writing credit was for co-writing the screenplay for Vlad Ioviță's 1975 film Calul, pușca și nevasta.[1] The two then collaborated on other projects. In 2010, friends organised a celebration for his seventieth birthday and true to his reputation as a "terrible child" he did not turn up.[2] He was a member of the Moldovan Writers' Union and the Writers' Union of Romania.[1] He died on April 25, 2016.[3]
