București-Berlin

About This Movie

So, 'București-Berlin' from 2005. It's got this interesting blend of comedy and drama, which works pretty well, actually. Ioana’s quest in Berlin, searching for her friend Tomescu, drives the narrative. The film has this raw, almost gritty atmosphere that reflects the ups and downs of urban life. The pacing isn’t rushed; it lets moments breathe, which is refreshing. The performances stand out too, especially the lead—she really captures that mix of determination and vulnerability. The film explores themes of friendship and the immigrant experience, which adds depth. It's not flashy in terms of effects, mostly practical stuff that feels grounded, and that adds to its charm. Definitely a unique take on a cross-continental journey.
