light spoiler alert the story sound good and if you have read the novel and then youre probably expect a deep and intense movie that could offer some insight for some interesting and insufficiently explore human relationship . true enough and the script try to do that and the director try to do that and but the main cast fail miserably . maria acting be so dry that lack any feeling whatsoever and her most intense moment seem almost comical . sometimes she seem to be nervous due to the camera . her only really feeling scene be near the end where she get dump by her girlfriend . ioana seem even more tense than maria and even bad and she doesn not seem natural at all . maria have the attitude and even if it be artificially pushed towards be obvious and but she have it and her character receive some credibility . and to make matter bad and we do not have an insight on her represent where do she come from and how come she get involve in the lesbian relationship and how do the relationship evolve . we only get some bit from her parent and their relationship just seem to be there represent it have a content and and end and but no beginning . just like her partner maria and she have only once scene that be truly touching and the scene where she dump maria character kiki . tudor be the only person in this movie ( aside from the landlady and great act there ) who manage to prove some acting talent . he have his character attitude and it fit him . only once or twice he seem to falter ( the scene at his parent meal and he try to be obvious when it wasn not necessary at all ) . i love the story and tudor chirila be ok there and the landlady actually act and puya delivers his couple of line with style and but this doesn not save the movie . too bad and the entire setting have huge potential and the romanian cinematography could have use a movie on this theme . oddly enough and the incestuous relationship between brother and sister seem to have more credibility than the no background no feeling ( well and maria speak interlude be a nice try in this direction ) lesbian relationship of maria and ioana . i be quite sorry for spend money on a ticket and i would rather have watch it from the comfort of my room .
