Lampa cu caciula

I've seen this short recently and it's just great. It captures the essence of a life lived by many of the countryside folks in Romania. You can say it's a drama as well, the drama of a harsh life lived by those that don't have much offered on a silver plate. It's a road-movie, describing the father-son relationship and the little things that matter a lot in life. The Great City is a metaphor, in this case, these people live a plain simple life and the broken TV comes live a disturbance in this life and they have to go fix in town, although they don't like the city that much. Radu Jude is famous by now for his shorts in Romania and I would say that he should be because his work is very good and it captures a very colorful lifestyle and great picturesque aspects often hidden in day to day life.
