Before watching, I heard that it is a pull tab. After reading it, I don't think so at all.
The director repeats the protagonist structure of April, three weeks and two days, creating two very different heroines who are as closely linked as twins. As a nun, the female protagonist is weaker than the second female who has a lesbian tendency in terms of expression. Instead, it puts the story in a very neutral position.
As the flag-bearer of the Romanian New Wave, director Mungi's realistic narrative and directing skills are first-rate. There is no cold scene from beginning to end.
The creation of many small characters from outside the monastery perfectly depicts the current situation of Romanian society, and also reminds the audience that in addition to this fierce conflict between worldly love and religious love, there is a vague, nonsense, An indifferent, ignorant social existence. And this existence is just more persistent than the so-called lofty idealistic disputes.
There is a blank space that is very advanced. In the end, why did the protagonist die after unlocking her girlfriend with a fascinated smile? Why didn't she run away when she could have escaped? Atheists would see the confinement and suppression of the monastery as the ultimate culprit. The religious person will realize that this is the will of God, and maybe she will finally be liberated and let go with a smile. In short, leave blank here, and the incomprehensible state of the two factions is reflected.
Whether it is faith or love, it is something that a person who is not completely wise can bear.
