One of great short films of the last decades. for its message, for cinematography, for the inspired way to explore, using simple aspects, the Romanian rural realities. a father and his son. the way to the city. a TV . and the dialogue as part of silence. adaptation of a short story, it is a film of details. out of any demonstration. like portrait of a world. like exploration of a relation in which the trust is mixed with the gray perspective about near reality. short, an admirable work.
