Plot
Emi, a teacher in Bucharest, finds that a private sex tape she made with her husband has leaked onto the internet. She is summoned to a parents' meeting at school to explain, and faces judgement from parents. Radu Jude's 2021 film, in three parts, with a satirical collage of Romanian life and a trio of endings, won the Golden Bear in Berlin.
Sinekatalog’s take
Radu Jude's satirical Bucharest comedy begins with a leaked sex tape and spirals into a savage portrait of hypocrisy. Bold, crude and funny, its Golden Bear win reflected a daring pandemic-era provocation.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
