Voted the best undistributed film of 2016 by Film Comment!
Writer-director Puius fifth feature plays tricks with the viewer from its elusive startan elaborate, extended street scene involving two testy parents and their young daughterto a finale three hours later that brings this remarkably staged masterpiece to an unexpected end. In between is one of the most sustained extended sequences in movie history: A family memorial service/gathering for a doctor patriarch. Inside a Bucharest apartment, a whole macrocosm of Romanian society seems to be on display, with comedy, bitterness, paranoia, love and barely concealed anger bouncing around the rooms. Cinematographer Barbu Balasoius roaming camera becomes like a member of the family, capable of quirks and upsets and irony. As always, Puius actors are superhuman, yet appear to be hardly acting at all.
