  2. Having spent my stay in Cannes working in an office from 8am to 8-9pm, I have to say I have not seen the film. But the Romanian Cultural Centre in London will be organizing a screening here so I’ll make sure to be there. Will tell all about it as soon as I’ve seen it.

    What I can say, is that our very tough LA editor saw it and remained impressed. Don’t expect an easy viewing, the theme is disturbing, it’s all about illegal abortion in 80’s Romania.
