Excursion

About This Movie

Excursion is this thoughtful, low-key drama that digs into how media shapes perception. The story of Eugen, a 9-year-old with a stolen camera, captures that childlike curiosity and the bizarre intersection of reality and fiction. There's a certain rawness to the footage he captures, which makes you feel the weight of his innocence. The pacing is deliberate; it lingers on moments that seem mundane but are filled with tension. The backdrop of an alien landing in Romania adds a surreal layer, almost like commentary on our fascination with the unknown. The performances, especially from Eugen, feel genuine. It’s a bittersweet exploration of childhood, ambition, and how the world can twist the truth.
