Whether it is ignorant or backward, the law has always served those in power, and the rules of the game have never been They are all formulated by the ruling class, but it can be said that: the people's democracy over the enemy's dictatorship, or the law has a strong class character, nothing more.
The film won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director in Berlin. The director presents the literature of Romania’s recent history in a form of a road film, and the idea is very similar to the Colombian film [Snake's Hug] nominated by the previous Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. There is almost no need for close-ups, and the whole story is medium and long-term or even big panorama.
