I should watch more wildlife documentaries
This is a punch in the heart and an immense invitation to educate oneself on Romania's Transylvania's political climate and history. The long wide shots remind me of the documentary style and make the characters feel insanely real. Mixed with the cinematography and this cold wild atmosphere, the film is just fascinating. The 17 minutes uninterrupted hall scene shot in itself is worth the watch. The frame doesn't change but it makes the focus even more important, and I bet I would find something new to see at any rewatch.
I cried like a baby. 100% would recommend, especially if you are a human being with feelings.
The direction was brilliant, both for the drama and the comic moments. (Can't forget that elevator scene in the B&B, genius!)
The music was well written and especially well dosed, especially considering how easy it is to have too much music in a drama film.
It was also well written, with lots of mystery for such a simple story.
