About This Movie

This Romanian drama, directed by Tudor Cristian Jurgiu, dives into the complexities of modern love through Clara's lens. She’s done with waiting for destiny to intervene, so she sets her sights on Vlad—a curious choice, really. Their chemistry is palpable, yet it’s this imbalance that drives the tension. Clara's yearning for a fairy tale contrasts sharply with Vlad's more casual, carefree approach to relationships. The film captures the awkwardness of human connection with a raw, almost documentary-like intimacy. Performances are quite strong; you feel every moment of hesitation and longing. The pacing meanders, reflective of the characters’ emotional states, creating a thoughtful atmosphere that lingers long after the credits roll.
