Black comedy elections far from the big cities...
A deadpan black comedy about elections in a small town, somewhere in Romania-typical Eastern Europe place. When a high profile politician is left behind in a lost place, he will have to live in the house of the commmon people, facing his voters.
I loved the actors. They seem they actually live there, maybe amateur actors. I enjoyed the surprising black-comedy end of the film , in the style of New Romanian Cinema very different then the usual commercial films you stream. The cinematography captures really well the rythm and the place, the small town but also the fields around it that seem like a desert.
It also reminded me of Aki Kaurismaki films in the 90s. I warmly recommend it as a piece of real cinema.
