Occident
ComedyRomance
Three overlapping stories take place over the course of a week in Bucharest, with characters whose life paths intersect and overlap; often independently of their intentions to emmigrate from Romania, or to stay behind.
VIBE
A darkly funny, yet poignant look at lives adrift. It's a film that feels like watching strangers' stories unfold, each thread weaving a tapestry of quiet desperation and unexpected connections. A thoughtful, bittersweet experience.
