The Smuggler (Contrabanda - original title)

Brave is the best way to express myself after seeing the movie. It's about a brave subject You need to show brave when watching it There were rough times, I will never forget Written by the brave colleague of mine, Adi

This award winning short film captures the danger and cost of standing against the Communist regime for another belief. It captures perfectly the implications of how one person's choice to follow their convictions affects others. This film has a wonderful music score which builds atmosphere and sets the pacing well. Brilliantly acted. Adrian Serecut is a gifted filmmaker and I look forward to seeing his career develop.

It's make me feel again the fear and communism regime. So well done!!!

An excellent short film from Adrian Serecut which captures perfectly the look and atmosphere of Communist Romania in the 1980s. The interiors, the clothes, the concrete apartment blocks, the interrogation rooms and the overwhelming sense of menace and state control take you deep into chilling recent history. The Smuggler tells a powerful story of faith, commitment, courage and sacrifice and the heavy price that people often have to pay to stay true to their beliefs. The key members of the cast are quietly impressive, as is the entire production.

Absolutly good...he made me goosebumps...the prezentation its so good and so realistic,its actualy take you back in time...Weel done Adrian 👏 You are a gifted filmmaker and I look forward to seeing your career developing!
